ASTA Comments on the USDA Definition of the Term Natural

ASTA signed onto an FBIA coalition letter to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) in July 2023 providing feedback on the FDA's “Food Labeling in Online Grocery Shopping; Request for Information” to provide general comments about the labeling of foods and the scope of FDA’s request. Comments include requests for flexibility and consistency with exemptions in existing nutrition labeling requirements.

ASTA issued comments to the Office of Nutritional Products, Labeling and Dietary Supplements at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2008 regarding labeling of paprika in regards to its two functions in food as a spice used to season food and as a color additive.
