Did Not Graze Here & Were Never Processed Here. Jenni & Will Harris Yet, The USDA & FDA Give Their Stamp Of Safety Approval & Allow This Foreign Beef To Be Labeled As ‘Product Of The USA.’ Beware of misleading “Product of USA” labels on supermarket beef. Consumers buying a package of steaks at the supermarket marked “Product of USA” likely believe that the label means it was raised on an American ranch. Maybe it’s also marked “Grass Fed,” & they imagine a grassy hillside somewhere in the U.S. dotted with healthy cattle. They assume they know where their family’s food comes from.
The problem? Over 85% of beef & pork in the package labeled with a big USA sticker on it came from one of 20+ foreign countries. Thanks to lobbying efforts by powerful meatpackers, such as JBS, Tyson & Cargill, current law allows use of the “Product of USA” label even when the beef & pork was born, raised & processed in a foreign country as long as…once the meat enters the U.S. it undergoes repackaging or what the USDA refers to as ‘value added.’ ‘Value Added’ is a loophole term that if the foreign beef & pork has been repackaged, sliced, cut or ground up on USA soil, then it is legally labeled as ‘product of the USA.’ The trouble began in 2015, when President Barack Obama & the USDA rolled back Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) for beef & pork products, allowing meat to be sold without disclosing its home country on the label.
In December 2015, President Barack Obama signed the Consolidated Appropriations Act which removed mandatory country-of-origin labeling requirements for muscle cuts of beef & pork as well as ground beef & pork. Under the current rules, beef & pork products that are shipped to the United States can be labeled “product of U.S.A.,” even when the animal was raised a continent away. That means a steer born, raised & slaughtered in Uruguay can be repackaged at a meatpacking plant in Colorado & labeled ‘product of USA.’ These labeling loopholes prevent consumers from knowing where the beef they feed their families is coming from & whether or not their dollars are supporting American ranchers. Crucial now more than ever, is to purchase beef, pork & all meat, locally from farmers & ranchers. Support your local farmer & rancher. Let me know in the comments if you need referrals on how to find local beef or for beef, pork & poultry that can be shipped to your door.
