美国拟撤销若干肉类及家禽包装上双重标签的规定

　　  据美国联邦公报消息，2019年4月17日，美国农业部食品安全检验局（FSIS）发布2019-07634号文件，拟撤销若干肉类及家禽包装上双重标签的规定。

 

　　据了解，此次申请由美国一家小型肉类加工企业提出，美国农业部食品安全检验局提议修订其标签条例，删除要求肉类或家禽产品包装中含有至少一磅或一品脱，但少于四磅或一加仑，以两种不同的计量单位在产品标签上表示净重或净含量的规定。

　　The Food Safety and Inspection Service （FSIS） is proposing to amend its labeling regulations to remove provisions that require packages of meat or poultry products that contain at least one pound or one pint, but less than four pounds or one gallon, to express the net weight or net contents in two different units of measurement on the product label. FSIS is taking this action in response to a petition submitted on behalf of a small meat processing establishment. After reviewing these provisions, FSIS has determined that it is not necessary for labels of any meat or poultry products to bear dual statements of weight or content, using more than one unit of measurement, to convey the accurate weight or amount of the product to consumers.
