The traffic light system is voluntary, it doesn't have to be put on food labels - [URL]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-37389804[/URL] - but the labels do have to contains details of the carb content and I don't need a colour code to tell me if the carbs are ok, I need an exact number of carbs so I can work out my insulin dose, that exact number of carbs is already mandatory on the package.
