The American Frozen Food Institute (AFFI) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Food Labeling: Front of Package Nutrition Information Proposed Rule. From manufacturers to distributors to suppliers to packagers, AFFI is proud to represent publicly traded and family-owned companies who help produce frozen foods and beverages for today's food service and retail marketplace and serve as economic pillars within their communities. Throughout the U.S., frozen food sales reached $85 billion in the last year, and the industry accounts for 670,000 U.S. jobs. AFFI and its members continue to support the agency's mission to provide factual nutrition information to consumers to support their informed nutrition and diet decisions. As the trade association representing the frozen food industry, we share FDA's public health goals and are committed to policies that help consumers make informed choices in a way that is clear, science-based, and practical. Frozen foods play a critical role in supporting healthy eating patterns by offering safe, affordable, and convenient access to a variety of nutrient-dense options, ranging from single-ingredient vegetables and fruits to complete, portion-controlled meals. As FDA considers future rulemaking, we encourage the agency to maintain a balanced, evidence-based approach that is consistent with the agency's underlying legal authority and ensures a front-of-package nutrition labeling (FOPNL) framework that aligns with how consumers interpret nutrition information and recognizes the wide range of food products that fit into a healthful diet. Please see the attached document for AFFI's complete written comments.

Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is proposing to require front-of-package nutrition labels on foods. This action, if finalized, would require the display of a compact informational box containing certain nutrient information on the principal display panel of most foods that must bear a Nutrition Facts label to provide consumers, including those who are busy or have lower nutrition knowledge, with interpretive nutrition information that can help them quickly and easily identify how foods can be part of a healthy diet.
