The peelable/resealable tamper-evident label comprises an unsealed pull tab and a plurality of adjacent tear slits positioned at or near the periphery of the peelable/resealable tamper-evident label. The tear slits are slanted towards the unsealed pull tab.

When the label is lifted anywhere other than the unsealed pull tab, it will tear at one or more tear slits which indicates that the label has been tampered with.
