FDAs Proposed Nutrition Facts Labels to Contain Inaccurate InformationCatherine J. Frompovich According to Food Safety News [2], Key aspects of FDAs proposed changes include: Without printed indication on food packaging and labels whether the contents/ingredients contain GMOs, e.g., corn, soy, canola, etc., no one has clear, accurate information. Not to bring politics into this discussion, Mrs. Obama, but what happened to the campaign promise your husband made to the world about transparency? Nothing is more transparent than the apparent hidden agenda to keep U.S. consumers from knowing we are eating GMOs. Cant you please do something to change that even pillow talk that would get those new food labels to have clear, accurate information? All children, especially those with food allergies and gastrointestinal problems, will benefit from parents having accurate food information. Thanks for whatever you can do. However, in the meantime, consumers will have an opportunity to get into the act, too. Food Safety News says, The proposed rules will be published to the Federal Register and a 90-day comment period opened. FDA plans to finish the final rule by 2015 and then give industry two years to put the new rules into effect. [3] Readers, here will be your chance to facilitate positive and accurate changes on food labels. I encourage everyone concerned about factual, clear, accurate information to voice your opinions and suggestions as soon as the FDA opens the 90-day comment period.
