FDA Considers Food Label Change for Allergies

By Louthian Law Firm

Responding to concerns that food labels aren't doing enough to alert consumers to the presence of allergens, or that the labels are just plain confusing, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration hosted a public hearing Sept. 16 on what it can do to improve things.

The hearings are part of a "long-term strategy" on the part of the FDA to help manufacturers upgrade their labeling practices, making them both clear and truthful.
