QUICK RESPONSE CODES FOR GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS: A "QUICK FIX" TO AMERICA'S DEEP-ROOTED DEBATE SURROUNDING GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS.

- Abstract
Consumers, producers, and lawmakers have long debated whether to require labels for food containing genetically engineered ("GE") ingredients. In 2016, this question was seemingly answered with the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Act ("NBFDA"), which mandated such labels. Nevertheless, the NBFDA did nothing to alleviate the public's concerns pertaining to GE food ingredients, and the debate surrounding the benefits and safety of GE food ingredients continues. This Comment suggests that the NBFDA was Congress' attempt to sidestep the underlying unease regarding these food products, rather than directly address the negative connotations that surround GE food ingredients.
