Hi everyone
I recently received some good news on gluten-free labeling from the USDA.
Once the FDA's final rule on gluten-free labeling becomes effective if a
meat or poultry establishment chooses to make a gluten-free claim on their
label they will have to follow the requirements set forth in the FDA rule.
At this time the FSIS is not planning to conduct their own rule making on
gluten-free labeling. This is great news for consumers.
