I think it is funny how they are forcing this labeling upon foods, all the while, it isn’t a requirement for foods that have been genetically modified to be labeled. I mean, how is this for origin, this strawberry is genetically modified with Fish cells. I mean, give me a break!

I was also looking at meats in the store. Some were labeled, some weren’t. Some said product of US and Canada.

OJ concentrate in the store was marked product of US and Brazil, the other brand listed four countries. Consumers are confused as well, having read the information on the COOL site. To ad insult to injury the manager at the local sales barn was asked if the affidavit stated United States of America origin where your cattle part of the National Corporate Herd to which he replied YES. They are also requiring that feed and drug affidavits be renewed every years and one even stated that the packers would have the right to inspect feed records and receipts. These requirements are coming from the packers, we are already subject to the Safe Food Act, then why the additional paperwork.

I looked at a steak in HEB and in very small print, almost phone book size, it stated product of Canada, USA, Mexico.
Hopefully they will have to do better than that after this phase in period. I thought they could do that for ground beef but a steak?

I went to the store yesterday and no meat was labeled ANYTHING. It said “inspected in the US”. Also, nearly all meat had something injected in it or added to it so it would not be considered a requirement to tell you where it was from. Bloody irritating.

we need to call our senators and congress repts. and tell them, we have not become the north american union yet, that we the people dont want a north american label on the meat and produce in the food marts,that we the people want and demand food be labeled with the country that it comes from ,that nothing else will do.gisela you are right,how can there be any kind of trace back if there ARE problems with any of these meats,there could not. THIS JUST SHOW NAIS IS NOT ABOUT TRACE BACK OF A PROUDUCT .IT IS ABOUT GOVT. CONTROL AND PACKER PROFITS.

Which came first-COOL or contaminated food? Early NAIS documents showed in black in white it was the plan all along to allow a contaminated food epidemic across America so that the public would demand the NAIS. Brilliant psy-ops, it’s working.
