Let seafood sellers use 'Golden Sea Bream'
If enacted, seafood businesses could label Stenotomus chrysops as "Golden Sea Bream." Using that name alone would not make the food misbranded, adulterated, or in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. FDA could not cite that name by itself as a violation. Other labeling and safety rules would still apply. Consumers might see this name on packages and menus.
