You'll now know where your sizzling bacon comes from after pork products were included in a food-labelling bill.
The Consumers' Right to Know (Country of Origin of Food) Bill, which requires food to carry country of origin labelling, passed its third reading in Parliament last night with almost unanimous support — all parties except Act.
The member's bill was in the name of Green Party MP Gareth Hughes, who took over from former Green MP Steffan Browning when he resigned at the last election.
The foods covered are those with only one ingredient which is unprocessed or subject to minimal processing.
They include fresh and frozen fruit and vegetables, seafood and meat, including cured pork products such as ham and bacon. Tinned vegetables and fruit, and frozen mixed vegetables will not be covered.
