On a visit to Melton Mowbray, home of one of Britains most iconic protected foods, the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie, Mr Paice, UK MP for South East Cambridgeshire said he wanted to see improved country of origin labelling, particularly for meat and dairy products where confusion can most easily occur.
Jim Paice said: It is a priority for the Government to ensure that food labelling is as clear as it could be. Im therefore calling on the industry to work with us to ensure that people can be confident about the origin of the products they buy.
Ive written to food industry leaders to emphasise that we want clarity and transparency for the consumers, who want to make a choice based on the origin of their food particularly if they believe they are buying British.
