“90% lean,” labels must now also include the fat percentage, in this example “10% fat.”

Because people are too stupid to subtract 90 from 100 to get 10? Insane.

"It's the kind of information that consumers are asking for and we just think it's about helping people make their own best choices by having the information that they need," says Dr. Elisabeth Hagen, Undersecretary for Food Safety at the USDA.

Bull$hit. When was the last time any rational person was "asking" for anything the government stuffed down their throats. Well, except for asking by the way they vote. As in "You're really asking for it now!"

Eric Holder's people have to be provided mindless, meaningless bureaucratic jobs with which to lord it over non-Eric Holder's people.

It's all part of the reparations/redistribution busienss.

Do they identify what drugs and hormones were administered to the animal? That’s what I would like to know. And I would like to know what kind of food the animal was fed.

In addition to showing the lean content for a particular meat, such as "90% lean," labels must now also include the fat percentage, in this example "10% fat."

Labeling to accommodate those who are weapons grade stupid.

Nutrition labeling for meat becomes mandatory

Neat!

That will make the deer easier to see when they're slippin' through the brush.

You may laugh now, but the day is coming when they’ll demand meat products be labeled with a picture of the slaughtered animal on it, like some countries mandate putting pictures of cancer patients and diseased lungs on cigarette packs.
