Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In food labeling, vegetarian food should be indicated with a green circle, not a square. The correct symbol is a green circle with a white background, ensuring standardization across food packaging. This label is part of the regulations that promote transparency and allow consumers to make informed choices. The other statements about labeling are true as they ensure necessary information is provided to consumers.
