has found that there is one major downfall to this convenient shopping option.
A majority of online grocery retailers don't have nutrition facts, ingredients, and allergen information readily available on online listings of products—a factor that is required by U.S. law to appear on the physical packaging of food products in all brick and mortar stores.
On average, nutrition facts appeared online only 36.5% of the time. Potential allergens were only disclosed on 11.4% of the products in the study.
This may mean that online grocery shopping can potentially lead you to unknowingly make less healthy choices. For example, if you're following adue to blood pressure issues, you may not be able to recognize which items are best for you to purchase since the nutritional values aren't listed. "Labeling requirements are intended to protect consumers who are largely unable to protect themselves," Pomeranz said."This is even more salient for online sales where consumers cannot directly inspect products. At a minimum, the entire required nutritional information panel should be made visible and legible for consumers shopping for their groceries online.
