Mr Edson Pepper (BA) received, in Brasilia, the President of the Brazilian Association of Manufacturers of Pasta and Bread & Cake Industrialized (ABIMA), Claudio Zanão, and representatives of the Brazilian Association of Industries Food (ABIA), to discuss replacement of, the Draft Law No. 5.081/2013, which provides for the use of the term "wholegrain and related" in the labeling of foods from cereals.

The text requires that all products governed by law should bring the percentage of whole grains and label product information wholegrain or partial-wholegrain.
According to Pepper, the "goal is to establish objective criteria for use of these expressions on the food label, which will provide consumers access to clear information about the quantity of flour present in the food."
