Apparently they want to allow most irradiated foods to be labeled simply, "Pasturized", thus removing any visual identification that previously allowed consumers to recognize irradiated foods. This plan has been published in the Federal Register, so if you don't approve of this change, you can submit written or electronic comments until July 3, 2007. Details are in the notice of the proposed rule, at this location:
