5 Stan. J. Animal L. & Pol'y 1 (2012)

handle is hein.journals/stanilpo5 and id is 1 raw text is: journal of Animal Law and Policy Volume 5 2012 May Contain Hooves: Why and How the Government Should Implement Plain- Language Disclosure of Animal Products in Food Labels By Robert Glenn Ayres* A large number of Americans are vegetarians or vegans due to ethical rather than dietary concerns. Current food labeling laws require affirmative disclosure of ingredients, but for a number of reasons often allow the use of ingredients which are or may be derived from animal or slaughter products, or the inclusion of minute amounts of such products as flavoring, without disclosure to the consumer, or even a reasonable means of discovery. Recent regulations, for instance the disclosure of potential allergens, show that there is a relatively simple means to correct this problem and do so with minimal disruption and cost to manufacturers. * © 2012, Robert Glenn Ayres, is an Attorney Advisor with the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS); J.D. cum laude, University of San Diego School of Law.
