What does the principal display panel on a food package indicate?

The nutritional benefits of the product
The part of a package label most likely to be displayed
The effective shelf life of the product
The ingredients used in the product

The correct answer is: The part of a package label most likely to be displayed

The principal display panel on a food package is indeed focused on visibility and marketing, making it the most prominently displayed part of a package label. This area typically includes the product name, brand, and key information that is meant to attract consumers' attention. It is strategically designed to be eye-catching and to convey essential information at a glance, facilitating the customer’s decision-making process during shopping. The other options, while related to product information, pertain to aspects that may be found elsewhere on the packaging. For instance, nutritional benefits and ingredients are detailed in specific sections of the label, but they do not constitute the principal display panel. Similarly, effective shelf life can usually be found in date codes elsewhere on the package, rather than on the principal display panel itself.
