The American Meat Business (AMI) has succeeded in delivering nevertheless yet another blow to consumers, by obtaining the U.S. Court of Appeals to vacate a recent choice in favor of the USDA’s Amazing (Nation of Origin Labeling) regulation.  The end result will be the re-hearing of the case in Might, by all eleven judges in the circuit.

The USDA took a stand for shoppers by implementing Awesome, which requires  labeling of specific meats to disclose the nations the place cattle was born, raised and slaughtered.  One of the premises behind the regulation is that considering that cattle may possibly be born, raised and slaughtered in three different nations, buyers have the appropriate to know the place their meats are coming from.  The AMI submits that Amazing violates the 1st amendment by compelling speech that is factual in nature and of no well being benefit to consumers.

The final result of this case is appropriate to all buyer label movements, as it centers on the consumer’s correct to know what is in the food we consume.  In the U.S., several hazardous food components are hidden from shoppers under the toxic veil of a meals label.  The USDA, which is far from excellent, implements a regulation that actually favors customers, only to be brought down by the AMI.  Perhaps the adage, “No great deed goes unpunished” is real right after all.
