CFA, CSPI Ask for Accurate, Neutral and Informative Labels on Novel “Cell-cultured” Meat Products

CFA TC

Consumer Federation of America and the Center for Science in the Public Interest submitted the following comments in response to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA’s) notice of proposed rulemaking that solicits input on how meat and poultry products comprised of, or containing, cultured meat and poultry cells should be labeled. The comments urge USDA to coordinate with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which will regulate labeling of cell cultured seafood products, to ensure that naming conventions are consistent across cell-cultured animal products, and adequately inform consumers. The comments further recommend that the agencies conduct consumer research to explore the suitability of different terms.
