As most of my readers know, the FDA held a hearing on food labeling on Tuesday. There appear to be no definitive answers yet, as I didn't expect there would be so quickly. But the fact the FDA even held a hearing on this subject is wonderful news. I really hope there will be mandatory labeling for cross-contamination in the coming years.
The FDA is still accepting comments from the public until January 2009 (this is a change from the original date I saw of July 2009). This means that it is not too late for you to get your comment submitted. They seem to really care about those of us who are affected daily by these labels.
There are a few articles that talk about the hearings that you can read:
Washington Post
ABC News
Web MD
If anyone else has found any other information, please share in the comments or through e-mail. I'm still recovering from knee surgery and am a little loopy on pain killers and may have missed something else that has been written on Tuesday's events.
