Hinweis der Redaktion
- The following two items, a lemon and some ginger, indicate where they are from (California, USA [アメリカ カリフォルニア州] and Kochi prefecture [高知県], respectively) and the product names (レモン and しょうが). The lemon label also says it is additive-free (無添加, むてんか, mutenka) and the ginger says it's organic (有機, ゆうき, yuuki). First is the origin, in this case it's Chile, followed by the name (number 2), which says "trout salmon for sashimi use." Sashimi use (刺身用) is one you might see on different types of seafood. Must add heat or "加熱用" (must be cooked before eating/not to be eaten raw) is in the black box in the following image. Number 3 (white on black) indicates the fish is farmed (養殖), while 4 tells us the salmon was previously frozen or "thawed" (解凍). Number 5 is the date the fish was processed (加工年月日) and 6 lets us know when we should have devoured this fish by (消費期限). Number 7 is the cost per 100g, 8 is the total weight (内容量), 9 is the storage information (保存方法) and 10 is the total price.
- For example, a confectionery made by a Japanese company at a plant in China puts a Japanese language label on the product and sells it under a Japanese brand label. If the country of origin labelling does not say “made iin China”, it constitutes a form of misleading representation.
- The term “date of minimum durability” is defined by the Food Sanitation Law as “the date indicating the last time when a food or food additive can adequately retain its complete product quality.” On the other hand, the JAS Law defines the term “best-before date” as “the last date when a food in an unopened container or packaging and preserved according to an indicated preservation method can adequately retain its complete expected product quality characteristics.” The two terms are interpreted as semantically identical for administrative purposes. Nevertheless, there have been complaints that the non-uniformity of definition in these terms make them difficult for both consumers and providers to understand.
