Keep Integrity in Food Labeling!
Don't Let Our Food Labeling Standards Be Weakened
You're probably familiar with meat and poultry labels like "raised without antibiotics," "vegetarian diet," and "free range." These labels become more and more important as consumers try to buy the safest foods for their families.
Unfortunately there isn't currently a fixed set of standards used to
judge whether claims are accurate and should be allowed. This has
resulted in controversy about the accuracy of some claims and even led
to a lawsuit over "antibiotic-free" claims that were made for poultry
not raised entirely without antibiotics.
Tell the United State Department of Agriculture that consumers need
strong standards for what claims companies can make about how animals
are raised. Take action.
