Title: Product Labeling: Use of the Voluntary Claim "Natural" on the Labeling of Meat and Poultry Products | |
Abstract: The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued this Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) as part of its process to establish the conditions under which the Agency will permit the voluntary claim "natural" to be used on the labeling of meat and poultry products. After considering comments on the "natural" claim submitted by the public in response to a Federal Register notice that the Agency issued on December 5, 2006, and the comments presented at a public meeting held by the Agency on December 12, 2006, FSIS decided to solicit additional public input. FSIS concluded that another round of preliminary comments could help resolve the issues surrounding "natural." Therefore, the Agency published this ANPRM to solicit more focused comments on the issue. | |
