美國正式廢除肉類原產地標識規(guī)定COOL

    食品伙伴網訊   據美國食品安全新聞網消息，12月18日美國總統奧巴馬簽署聯邦預算法案，廢除肉類產品“原產地標識規(guī)定”（COOL）。

    11月份世界貿易組織（WTO）裁決，加拿大和墨西哥可就美國的COOL征收10億美元報復關稅。加拿大和墨西哥準備對包括葡萄酒和冷凍橙汁在內的美國產品征收報復性關稅。鑒于此，美國廢除肉類產品“原產地標示”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.
