Dear Bernard A. Schwetz, I want irradiated foods to be clearly and conspicuously labeled. I'm not the only one who feels this way. Please don't change the current sensible label.
Informed choice is part of a free-market economy.
Some shoppers want to buy irradiated foods because they want foods with lower pathogen risks. Other shoppers may avoid irradiated foods because of changes in taste, smell, texture, or nutrition, or for other reasons. FDA should not stand in the way of consumers making those choices by putting confusing new labels on irradiated food. Thank you for your attention to this matter. It's your Internet.
