食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)美國食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息,12月18日美國總統(tǒng)奧巴馬簽署聯(lián)邦預(yù)算法案,廢除肉類產(chǎn)品“原產(chǎn)地標識規(guī)定”(COOL)。
11月份世界貿(mào)易組織(WTO)裁決,加拿大和墨西哥可就美國的COOL征收10億美元報復(fù)關(guān)稅。加拿大和墨西哥準備對包括葡萄酒和冷凍橙汁在內(nèi)的美國產(chǎn)品征收報復(fù)性關(guān)稅。鑒于此,美國廢除肉類產(chǎn)品“原產(chǎn)地標示”規(guī)定。
部分原文報道如下:
Thanks to a label that reads “Product of the USA,” consumers have been able to find out a package of steaks or pork chops in the freezer section at their local grocery store came from America. But soon meat lovers will be hard-pressed to figure out whether the animals on their dinner plates were raised and slaughtered-in the States or halfway around the world.
