Kroger store in Murray Kentucky has their weight and price labels placed so as to cover the WATER ADDED information on almost all of the Byran Centerpiece Hams that are displayed for sale.
WATER ADDED is required as a part of ingredient information on certain products. Covering the information that is required by lay shows lack of ethic, morals, and integrity.
Information from USDA relative to this practice follows:
The net weight and price sticker is not supposed to cover mandatory labeling features.
