[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 406755, member: 97"] I was reading about the poll--An interesting point made is that the sentiment of strict/stricter labeling requirements was from across all demographic segments of the country... Looks like our USDA/NCBA/AMI are completely out of touch with the US consumer...Besides 92% wanting Country of Origin Labeling, 90% believe that Meat companies should be allowed to test for Mad Cow disease and to label the meat as such... 62% of consumers say they would choose the beef that is tested for Mad Cow and so labled.... 89% want meat and dairy products from cloned animals labeled as such... 88% want to allow milk from cows raised without Synthetic Bovine Growth Hormone to be labeled as such..... 55% of the consumers said they would choose the Hormone free milk...... [url=http://consumerist.com/consumer/white-noise/92-of-americans-want-country-of-origin-labels-on-food-277777.php]http://consumerist.com/consumer/white-n ... 277777.php[/url] Sad thing is this USDA/NCBA/AMI that are so out of touch with the US consumer are the ones still controlling our Checkoff Dollars for promoting beef.... :( Just think what could be accomplished if someone that knew what they were doing were allowed to channel those funds in a true direction that connected with the consumers beliefs... :???: [/QUOTE]
