Use of the Term ``Fresh'' on the Labeling of Raw Poultry Products
Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
On January 17, 1995, the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) proposed to amend the Federal poultry products inspection regulations to prohibit the use of the term ``fresh'' on the labeling of raw poultry products whose internal temperature has ever been below 26 deg. F. FSIS is extending the comment period on the proposal for 60 days in order to: Allow time for public review and comment on the findings of the Agriculture Research Service's (ARS) evaluation of the sensory, chemical, and physical properties of raw poultry products that have been exposed to and held at temperatures from 0 deg. F to 40 deg. F; allow the National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods the opportunity to comment on the proposed rule; and solicit public comments on options for reconciling the FSIS proposal to require a ``previously frozen'' disclosure on product whose internal temperature has ever been below 26 deg. F with existing FSIS regulations that require poultry labeled as ``frozen'' to have been chilled to an internal temperature of 0 deg. F or below.
