The problem arises more for domestic food industries because multinationals, it is known, produce everywhere: &#8220;If I want to reward companies that do not relocate or choose a product from a certain region,&#8221; the Five Stars ask, &#8220;how can I do it if I do not know the place of production? The executive for the time being has responded that an ad hoc law is needed, the appropriateness of which will be evaluated in the future.     <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Fish<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">. Both the scientific name of the fish and the commercial name, details of the fishing location, the category of fishing gear used to catch the fish, and whether the product has been thawed will have to be indicated on the label (see &#8220;frozen&#8221; section below), while the current indication of the production method, i.e., caught at sea, freshwater, or farmed, remains in effect. <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Frozen.<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">  In the case of frozen meat and fish and frozen preparations of unprocessed frozen meat and fish, the date of freezing should be indicated. In contrast, in the case of food that has been frozen before sale and is sold thawed, the name of the food must be accompanied by the words &#8220;thawed.&#8221; <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Meat and fish preparations<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">. Meat, meat preparations, and fishery products sold as fillets, slices, or portions that have been fortified with more than 5 percent water must indicate its presence on the label. Portions, fillets, or preparations composed of several pieces joined with additives or enzymes must specify that the product is obtained from the combination of several pieces (e.g., &#8220;mechanically separated meat&#8221; or &#8220;reconstituted fish&#8221;). Similarly, the presence of added proteins and their origin should be indicated.   <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Physical state of the product<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">. The treatments undergone by the product or even the ingredient will have to be accurately indicated. In this way, it will not be possible to take refuge-even in the ingredient list-behind terms such as &#8220;milk,&#8221; if milk powder or milk protein is used.  <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Substitution of normally expected ingredients.<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">  In the case of foods that contain, in their production recipe, substitute ingredients than what the consumer reasonably expects, these must be made clearly visible next to the product name, in characters similar to those of the food name. An example: a hazelnut cream that does not contain cocoa (an ingredient the consumer expects to find), but, for example, peanut butter, will need to have the words &#8220;with peanut butter&#8221; next to the product name. <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Sausages<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">.

Tea- and coffee-based &#8220;energy drinks&#8221; and &#8220;energy drinks&#8221; with a caffeine content greater than 150 mg\/l must bear the warning on the label, in addition to the words &#8220;High caffeine content&#8221; (introduced in 2003): &#8220;Not recommended for children and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Web-based sales.<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">  The sale of food on the web is also regulated for the first time. Consumers will have to have all legally required information (such as name of the food, ingredient list, allergens, net quantity, etc.) before finalizing the purchase, with the exception of the expiration date or the like, which can instead be provided with the delivery of the food. <\/span><\/span><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><br style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px; background: #ffffff;\">Which products are exempted.<\/strong><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">  The nutrition labeling requirement does not apply to fresh fruits and vegetables and unprocessed or seasoned single-ingredient products only; flours, waters, flavorings, spices, herbs, sweeteners, and chewing gum,<\/span><span style=\"color: #252525; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 23px;\">  food supplements.
