NACMCF to hold meeting on school lunch program purchases
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced that the National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods (NACMCF) will hold a public meeting via conference call on March 28, 2012 from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. (ET).
In February, a NACMCF subcommittee met with members from USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service, over several days, to discuss the purchase of ground beef for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). Significant progress was made throughout the course of their meetings, and the subcommittee's questions and findings will be considered by the full committee.
