Subject: Making Foods Safe

I am proud that our attorney general of the State of Wyoming was one of
those petitioning your administration to change the law regarding food
labeling.

As a concerned memberof the CEnter for Science in the Public Interest, I
personally urge you to invest more resources to ensure that:

	food labels completely and accurately list the presence of all known all
known allergens, including those used in flavorings;

	food manufacturers adopt measures to prevent the unintentional
contamination of their products with undeclared food allergens; and

	food manufacturers include a toll-free telephone number on their labels
so that consumers can call for more information about ingredients.

We deserve the whole Truth in Labeling!

Sincerely,

Marabel Gates
