New FDA poultry labling system

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- The labeling system for meat and poultry is about to get easier.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has launched a new web-based label approval system which makes it easier to review meat, poultry and egg product labels.

Before the new system, companies mailed or hand delivered paper applications to the FDA.
