So this label will be on the front of the package? So we won’t be able to see the quality of the meat? What will be the unintended consequences of this one?

Large supermarket chains will switch to deeper and narrower polystyrene packages to limit the available viewing area of the meat behind the labels.

This will be done to minimize discoloration and is more cost effective than the use of dyes on the top side of the meat. (more cost effective due to labor costs as compared to the dye costs)
