食品伙伴网讯   据美国食品安全新闻网消息，12月18日美国总统奥巴马签署联邦预算法案，废除肉类产品“原产地标识规定”（COOL）。

    11月份世界贸易组织（WTO）裁决，加拿大和墨西哥可就美国的COOL征收10亿美元报复关税。加拿大和墨西哥准备对包括葡萄酒和冷冻橙汁在内的美国产品征收报复性关税。鉴于此，美国废除肉类产品“原产地标示”规定。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Thanks to a label that reads “Product of the USA,” consumers have been able to find out a package of steaks or pork chops in the freezer section at their local grocery store came from America. But soon meat lovers will be hard-pressed to figure out whether the animals on their dinner plates were raised and slaughtered-in the States or halfway around the world.
