A warning label on the packaging of raw chicken products may result in improved kitchen hygiene among one quarter of the population. Most people already prepare chicken safely, irrespective of whether they read the label. Consumers consider labels to be important, useful and reassuring. This has been demonstrated by research carried out by the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) in conjunction with the Voedingscentrum (Dutch Nutrition Centre).
