  • Nutrition Label Requirements on Ground Poultry Products
    FSIS encourages voluntary nutrition labeling on these products, either as a label on the package or as point-of-purchase materials in the store.

    It is not mandatory. Providing the nutrient composition of these products, per serving, allows for product comparison and determining its contribution to the overall diet.

    As of July 1994, USDA/FSIS requires mandatory nutrition labeling for most meat and poultry products except raw, single-ingredient products, such as beef roasts, raw chicken breasts, ground beef and poultry.

    If a producers uses the terms "lean" or "extra" lean to describe his products then a nutrition label must be on the package and the information on the "Nutrition Facts" panel must support this claim. (These terms have been defined in the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990.)

    Great question and I hope that helps.
