Soy protein products in the U.S. fall under the regulatory powers of the Food and Drug Administration as far as processing plants are concerned. The U.S. Department of Agriculture controls their use in meat and poultry products. Many states have separate regulations. The industry is expected to know federal and state regulations and interpret them for the customer. Difficulties arise for the processor when there are so many different state, Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and foreign regulations that affect the products. This Conference might spearhead world‐wide cooperation in the development of future regulations.
