I oppose the exemption in the COOL of commodities found in “processed” food items. This exemption excludes a significant portion of the foods consumers bring home from their grocery stores on a daily basis and it compromises a consumer’s right to know the origin of the foods they are buying and consuming. Thank you, Jennifer M. Nelson
