67.230 - Prepackaged and prepared foods

Food standards

Health Canada's Food Directorate has concluded that the Directory of Nutrition Symbol Specifications and Directory of Supplemented Food Caution Identifier Specifications should be amended to permit displaying the front-of-package (FOP) nutrition symbol and supplemented food caution identifier (SFCI), or two nutrition symbols, with no buffer between them where they share a border (i.e., are contiguous).Health Canada is therefore proposing to modify the Directory of Nutrition Symbol Specifications and the Directory of Supplemented Food Caution Identifier Specifications to permit displaying the FOP nutrition symbol and SFCI, or two nutrition symbols, with no buffer between them.
