在美國推動新版食安法中,
豁免法條大大影響生鮮食品業者與農產品業者,
對於受豁免法條保護的業者,
不會受到太多的牽制與影響,
一切如常不變∼
豁免的規範如下:
Under the act, farms are exempt if they average less than $500,000 in food sales annually (for the last 3 years) and sell most of their food directly to consumers, restaurants and stores within the state or 275 miles or less from the farm.

新版法案的這部分更可怕,
在查緝食品攙偽部分,
過去是要提出證據才能扣留疑似攙偽的實品,
未來只要認為你疑似攙偽就可以先扣留該批食品了,
這樣對保存期限短的食品傷害真的很大!
