When a company prints false or misleading information on the packaging material of a product, this is considered a form of consumer fraud. This is true of food manufacturing companies who make inaccurate claims about their products’ nutritional value or ingredients. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not take consumer fraud lightly.
In February 2010, the agency sent out warning letters to 17 food manufacturing companies regarding just that. According to the FDA, each company that received a warning letter was in direct violation of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which was designed to protect against false or misleading advertising. Apparently, the companies in question had false or misleading information on some of their product labels regarding trans fat content, advantages of antioxidants and omega-3 benefits.
