Ever been shopping and seen the host of labels proclaiming a certain food item to be organic, all-natural or "GMO-free?" Have you wondered what those terms mean and how that product might be different from ones sitting next to it without colorful logos and labels? There's an upcoming event that wants to help answer those questions, according to a press release.
A food marketing class will be June 2 at the Etowah County Extension Office at 3200A West Meighan Boulevard in Gadsden, according to the release. It will run from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
A team of subject matter experts from Alabama Cooperative Extension will be present to answer questions. The team will present research and science-based information to help those interested to become more educated consumers.
