Now it might sound pretty innocuous, but this document certainly ruined a few July 4 holiday weekends, and could have apocalyptic ramifications for the trade if some commentators are to be believed. While the FDA’s Dan Fabricant insisted it contained few surprises, trade associations and food law attorneys alike warned it could prove catastrophic unless Fabricant et al are prepared to countenance some pretty radical revisions.
