4 +7 | EU format for food labelling on weight |

e net EU format for food labelling on weight Explanation: If you are reading from a real piece of food packaging, you should be able to see that the "e" has a special font. This symbol indicates that the packaging and the labelling (ie the information which has to be included) conforms to legislation common to all of the European Union. Net, since you include it, although I suspect you already know this, means the weight after packaging and, if applicable, liquid, has been subtracted. Here's a link to a photo showing your "e": http://www.britvic.com/images/labels/back.gif -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 45 mins (2010-01-20 15:54:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, I should point out that the "e" is down by the 1 litre at the bottom of the label. This is the label for a well known British brand of soft drink. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2010-01-20 16:24:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Weight or volume, and in your case this will be something like a cream (not for internal consumption!) If you need to include this in a translation, I would recommend that this "e" should be left untouched. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2010-01-25 12:10:58 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Glad to be of help Nadia! |
