Laura Shumow, National Confectioners Association. Presented at the 2018 conference
USDA is required to issue a final rule-making on the disclosure of bioengineered ingredients (aka GMO labeling) by July of this year. Meanwhile, FDA has extended the compliance deadline for NFP labeling to January 2020. In conjunction with the updates to nutrition labeling, FDA is working on a consumer education campaign to empower Americans to make better decisions about their health. Additionally, FDA plans to improve the timeliness and communication of food recalls and to exercise enforcement discretion on certain components of food safety regulations. This talk will address the latest updates on these topics and more.
