"and that's why we think the natural label is so incredibly in fact it does not." shoppers aren't mislead. the fda is now asking for public comment." the grocery manufacturers of america calls that: "....a welcome and necessary step towards having a common national standard that consumers can rely on regardless of where they live or shop."
