Availability of Kit Product Labeling Guideline
In July 2019, the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) published and requested comment on a guideline for establishments producing multi-component kit products that contain inspected and assembled meat or poultry components. FSIS is announcing updates to this guideline and responding to comments received on the guideline. FSIS intends for this guideline to help establishments and other food handling facilities producing a multi-component food kit determine whether the kit product needs to be prepared under FSIS inspection and how to label a kit product that contains fully labeled meat or poultry components. The guideline represents current FSIS thinking, and FSIS will update it as necessary to reflect comments received and any additional information that becomes available.
