Grocery Manufacturers Association Urges FDA to Define the Term “Natural” for Food Labeling
13 May 2016 --- In comments submitted to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) called on the agency to more clearly define the use of the term “natural” in food labeling.
“Our industry is committed to providing consumers with labeling information in the clearest possible terms in order for them to make informed product purchases,” said Karin Moore, GMA’s senior vice president and general counsel. “It is critically important for FDA to clearly define the term ‘natural’ to alleviate confusion for consumers and industry alike and to set a standard that will promote fair and consistent dealing in the marketplace among food and beverage manufacturers.”
