    Abstract:

    Among the 10 front of package (FOP) labels for kid-friendly foods worldwide, Nutri-score labeling, health star rating system and especially warning labels could significantly guide children and their parents to reduce unhealthy food consumption. In fact, the marketing information on the front of food package could however easily interfere with consumers' health decisions based on FOP labels. It was found that it is feasible to design FOP labels in China based on the experience of warning labels in combination with the mandatory nutrients on the nutrition information list. And it is suggested to clarify the usage format of FOP labels and standardize the labeling of marketing information. In addition, the nutrition literacy of school-age children and parents of preschool children should be improved to screen food packaging information and use FOP labels.
