The pressure sensitive adhesive is attached to an exposed surface of an inner surface layer of the label, and the product includes one or more materials capable of migrating through the label and providing visible stains therein. The inner surface layer of the label includes a hydroxyl functionalized polyether amine resin preventing the material exuded from the product from migrating through the label thickness to provide visible staining of said label.
