The EU Regulation (1169/2011) on the Provision of Food Information to Consumers requires that where vegetable oils or fats are listed in the ingredients of food, the vegetable origin of the oil must be given (Annex VII, Part A.8.). Food Business Operators are responsible for ensuring that the correct information is provided on labels and that consumers are not misled. Along with all food information regulations, these requirements are enforced by Trading Standards Officers.
