Abstract: A method for checking products with labels, wherein: a product is formed and is provided on one side, in particular an outer side, with a label which, at least in fitted condition, forms at least one closed surface; the product is brought between a light source and a light-sensitive device; and with the light-sensitive device, the pattern and/or intensity of light originating from the light source and falling through the product, in particular through and/or alongside the label, is measured; wherein the light-sensitive device produces a rejection signal if the pattern and/or the intensity do not agree with a pre-set pattern and/or intensity.
