| 95-31391 | Food Standards: Requirements for Processed Meat and Poultry Products Named by Use of an Expressed Nutrient Content Claim and a Standardized Term | Proposed Rule | The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to amend the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations to establish a general definition and standard of identity for standardized meat food and poultry food products that have been modified to qualify for use of an expressed nutrient content claim in their product name. These products would be identified by an expressed nutrient content claim, such as ``Fat Free,'' ``Low Fat,'' and ``Light,'' in conjunction with an appropriate standardized product name. FSIS is taking this action to: (1) Assist consumers in maintaining healthy dietary practices by providing for substitute versions of standardized processed meat food and poultry food products that have reductions of certain constituents that are of health concern to consumers, such as fat and cholesterol, (2) increase regulatory flexibility and support product innovation in accord with Executive Orders 12861 and 12866 and with President Clinton's Memorandum to Heads of Departments and Agencies, ``Regulatory Reinvention Initiative,'' dated March 4, 1995, and (3) provide consumers with an informative nutrition labeling system. | 1995-12-29 | 1995 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1995/12/29/95-31391/food-standards-requirements-for-processed-meat-and-poultry-products-named-by-use-of-an-expressed | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1995-12-29/pdf/95-31391.pdf | Agriculture Department; Food Safety and Inspection Service | 12,201 | The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to amend the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations to establish a general definition and standard of identity for standardized meat food and poultry food products that have... |
