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.
