Product Labeling: Use of the Voluntary Claim 'Natural' in the Labeling of Meat and Poultry Products

View Comment

I am opposed to your establishing a "natural" claim. We already have organic standards, as well as humane husbandry standards. The "natural" label will only confuse people, and allow processors to market products as natural with fuzzy definitions. Such claims as "antibiotic free" or "free range" (if clarified) will be more useful.
