Food fraud can cost consumers more than money—it can undermine confidence in what’s on the label. FDA testing of 195 domestic and import samples of lemon juice found 7 imported products that did not meet the U.S. standard of identity for lemon juice. This work builds on recent FDA sampling to detect economically motivated adulteration in foods including honey and seafood. Learn more about the results of FDA’s testing of lemon juice samples.
