Facing the challenge of clean label demands
There has been increasing interest from food manufacturers in 'clean label' ingredients, but what does clean label actually mean?
Speaking at the Research Chefs Association conference and expo in Phoenix, Advanced Food Systems' director of technical service Chris Kelly told FoodNavigator-USA.com that the lack of a clear definition for 'clean label' poses challenges for food companies.
He said that government agencies should either come up with a clear definition of leave it up to consumers - but taking the middle ground just causes confusion.
