據美國食品安全新聞網消息，美國農業部長維爾薩克日前表示，美國農業部將在兩年內推出機械嫩化牛肉標識規定。
新標識法律的實施，將促進2013年與2014年的最新標識規定在2016年1月1日的實施。
機械嫩化牛肉具有一定的健康風險，因為在機械加工過程中，病菌會從牛肉表面進入內部，如果不經充分烹飪，那么消費者會患病。
部分原文報道如下：
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.
