据美国食品安全新闻网消息，美国农业部长维尔萨克日前表示，美国农业部将在两年内推出机械嫩化牛肉标识规定。
新标识法律的实施，将促进2013年与2014年的最新标识规定在2016年1月1日的实施。
机械嫩化牛肉具有一定的健康风险，因为在机械加工过程中，病菌会从牛肉表面进入内部，如果不经充分烹饪，那么消费者会患病。
部分原文报道如下：
While appearing before the House Agriculture Appropriations Subcommittee Wednesday, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said USDA will work to introduce labels for mechanically tenderized beef within the next two years.
New labeling laws are implemented in two-year increments so that new label rules made in 2013 or 2014 will be implemented on Jan. 1, 2016. When the mechanically tenderized beef label wasn't finalized before the end of 2014, advocates were disappointed by the prospect that it wouldn't make it onto beef packages until 2018.
