Recently, the Food Safety and Inspection (FSIS) branch of the USDA issued new guidance around GMO claims for meat, poultry and liquid eggs. What does this mean for you?

You may see other labels or text claims popping up on the meat products you purchase. The new guidance allows meat and liquid egg producers to make non-GMO claims if they are run through a third-party certifier. The big difference is those other third-party certifiers may not hold ingredients to the same standards as the Non-GMO Project, and may not even require testing for GMO contamination.
