Labels like “natural,” “organic,” and “local” appear on lots of different food products, but how do we know if these labels are telling the full story?
Weak federal labeling laws and fragmented oversight have allowed the food industry to stretch the meaning of labels like "organic" and "natural" in order to trick consumers into purchasing their products.
The Food Labeling Modernization Act (S.1289) would make it easier for consumers to determine the right food choices at the grocery store by bringing transparency and simplicity to our nation’s food labeling requirements.
Urge your Members of Congress to support the Food Labeling Modernization Act!
