关于美国人是否重视食品标签方面的知情权,美国政府FDA-部门有个调查统计,说: Americans’ use of the food label has increased: The percent of the U.S. population that report “often” reading a food label the first time they buy a product increased from 44% in 2002 to 54% in 2008. Almost two-thirds (64%) of Americans report seeing nutrition labeling on menus, napkins or placemats in restaurants and about one-half of them use the information often or sometimes. 详见:Fact Sheet: Key Findings from 2002 and 2008,FDA,2010, 连接:http://www.fda.gov/Food/LabelingNutrition/ucm202780.htm 。
