This webinar will provide an overview of federal food labeling laws and regulations and the roles of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in regulating food labeling, and address key aspects of food labeling, such as labeling requirements, label approval, organic food labeling, and labeling of plant-based and genetically engineered foods.
1 hour of substantive CLE credit available for Pennsylvania-licensed attorneys at no charge.
