David Lazarus writes about changes to the FDA for LAtimes. With a new president, there will be changes to our lives. There is a lot of talk about what changes to expect and how our lives will change.

One concern is possible cutbacks in the FDA.  How will safety guidelines and regulations change?  One would think that with less laws and regulations put on dietary supplement manufacturers that there will be a greater risk for those who use them. Will people get sick from using a product they think is safe?

If cutbacks are made in the Department of Health and Human Services then there will be cutbacks in the FDA since it falls under the Department of Health and Human Services. Staffers who oversee the Dietary Supplement industry will be cutback.

If you have any concerns about your business regarding the FDA, give us a call. Our attorneys here at  Ullman, Shapiro & Ullman will provide comprehensive services for your company across the spectrum of legal needs in the natural foods and dietary supplements industry.

Super pumped to announce that I will be teaching an online #food & #agriculture #law class this summer at Vermont Law School. It's not "official" until you see your bio on the faculty website! 😳#whoathatsme I'm part-teacher ya know... my father was an agriculture instructor at #lakelandcollege for most of his career and my mother used to be a math teacher before starting her computer company (yes, I learned to do arithmetic before learning my ABC's). For those of you who have heard me speak then you know that I like to keep things *practical.* This #aglaw class will be no different. 😎The students will get their hands dirty in #foodlaw and #agriculturelaw issues the way a practicing #attorney by working through some realistic projects and fact patterns, such as writing a #farmlease. For those of you who are interested, the class will be from July-August. (p.s. Thank you for the prayers for my grandma Rincker -she made it through her surgery. p.p.s. This #mural is by my favorite artist, @crashone ). #thoseeyes (at Wynwood Walls)

'What's in a Name?', Mislabeled Seafood: Codes, Fraud, Legislation and why it matters

     Terms like 'Food' and 'Fraud' are not always heard in the same sentence. The same could also be said about 'Mislabeled' and 'Seafood', and, yet, the topic concerning mislabeled seafood has been raised time and again for a while. From coast to coast, states like Maryland [1] and California [2] have introduced bills against mislabeling seafood as a reaction to something that many would never consider: the fish labelled 'grouper' on your menu might not be grouper at all. In order to overcome the issue of seafood fraud, legislation concerning the safety of seafood has been introduced in Congress [3] to establish national standards for what's brought in, federally, and some have developed codes to ensure that what is on presented for consumption [4] is what the customer has ordered.

       Within the United States, there is a high percentage of seafood that is imported; as high as 92 percent. Of this percentage of imported seafood, a surprising amount-in the past-has been mislabeled, purchased and served across the country without much concern raised about 1) where it originated from, 2) where it was before and during importation to the country and 3) whether or not it is really the correct fish being purchased. That is, until recently. As early as 2007 [5] [6], reports revealing that seafood labels were incorrect called attention to something that has been an issue for centuries: fraudulent labeling of the food we eat. Since then, states have been taking steps to ensure that what was once a rampant issue in the seafood industry can-one day- become a faint memory of accidental involvement.

       From a broad overview, the practice of mislabeling seafood is recognized as misbranding under US law [7] and enforced by the FDA. Historically speaking, as far back as the 13th century, the problem of ensuring that food is properly labelled is neither unique to America nor a novel topic. Assisa panis et cervisiae (The Assize of Bread and Ale) is a medieval law from England enacted to ensure-among other things- the quality of bread and beer sold within the kingdom by Henry III [8]. From a less broad, more specific perspective, by enforcing legislation and coding[4] of seafood it is possible to 1) cut down on the amount of misbranding that occurs at ports and across the country and 2) act toward preventing the very real act of economic fraud on a state level [9]. 

          Furthermore, on a basic-and more personal- nutritional level, some of the greatest concerns regarding the consumption of mislabeled seafood arises with one's health. Essentially, everything that looks like 'Red Snapper', 'Grouper' or 'Monck Fish' is not such. Likewise, the consumption of mislabeled fish leads to issues with consuming-sometimes in high amount-fish not meant to frequent consumption. To add to the issue, it becomes difficult to trace where mislabeled fish comes from. With no parameters set in place to determine what the fish is, there is a decreased percentage of being able to figure out what was in the water.

      The phrase: 'There is a shark in the water', then, seems to be somewhat fitting. With the practice of mislabeled fish entering into the US market and appearing on the plates of Americans both at home and in restaurants, there is danger present. Now that legislation is becoming more frequent up and down the East and West coasts-and hopefully growing-distance can be gained. And, the ever pending danger of being 'bitten' from dangers lurking just beneath the ocean's surface is steadily decreased. That being said, though we may be far from walking in to every grocery store in America and purchasing fresh or frozen fish filet from choices with the heads still attached, progress is happening. Lastly, in regards to legislation on the safety of seafood and enforcing anti-fraud actions as a nation it seems that growing consumer awareness in this area is working toward a more source-aware consumer culture that favors proper, dependable labeling more and economic/supplier financial gains less.

GMO OMG: Is This The End of Real Food?

Check out this new documentary about genetically modified foods opening in select theaters this month! In the film, director Jeremy Seifert sets out to answer big questions about GMO foods, such as how these foods affect our health, our planet's health and the health of our families. Seifert also attempts to find out whether it is even possible to "opt out" of this genetically modified food system that has taken over the world, a question that takes him all over the world in his quest to find answers.

The Texas Food Law Society hopes to have a screening of this documentary in the near future for interested students, faculty and staff once it becomes available. In the meantime, check out the trailer above and the documentary's website: http://www.gmofilm.com
