The FDA is responsible for ensuring the U.S. seafood supply is safe, sanitary, wholesome, and properly labeled. To support the America First Seafood Strategy, the agency published draft guidance to help companies proudly and accurately label seafood of U.S. origin. If finalized, the guidance would provide examples of statements, such as “U.S.-Caught,” and graphics featuring the American flag to help consumers identify and choose U.S. seafood.

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.
The image features a blue background with text stating, "The FDA tested 195 samples of domestic and imported lemon juice for authenticity. See what we found." Below the text is an illustration of lemon branches with leaves and lemons. The FDA logo is at the bottom left.
