The FDA is looking for feedback on
a proposed regulation to reduce food-borne illness on fresh produce. Hoping to
forge a new way ahead after the food troubles of 2009, the organization is seeking public comment electronically as well as in
public meetings before issuing a rule. The organization hopes to hear from a variety of people - growers, producers, and packagers - about this topic and what concerns them most. (It's recommended reading for consumers, too, to find out what a favorite grower or local grocer might need to do to get those favorite greens to the table.)
The deadline to share with the FDA your concerns and thoughts about this important food safety issue is May 24, 2010. These
handy instructions will let you see what others are saying and make your voice heard on this important issue.

Division of Dockets Management,
