 Pasturization and School Lunches « Law For Food: The law affects what you eat. What you buy to eat affects the ...
The current push for irradiating meat (under the euphemism of ‘cold pasteurization’) is an attempt by the beef industry to make meat safer not by improving hygiene at the slaughterhouse, but by rendering contaminated meat harmless.
However, since in 2002 the FDA approved the use of the term “cold pasteurization” to refer to irratiation of meat, meat producers have been able to rely on irradiating their meat as a means of killing bacteria.
Because we can use cold pasteurization to kill bacteria at the end of the process, it is not worth the expense of introducing safeguards against bacteria throughout the process.

The term "cold pasteurization" was by far the most popular of a series of names tested to describe the process.
Cold pasteurization is a process to make food safe like many others and therefore, it is inappropriate for FDA to require any special labeling for meat and poultry products in their entirety, or multi-ingredient products that may be contained in a menu item.
Because cold pasteurization is endorsed by the American Medical Association, the American Dietetic Association, the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Institute of Food Technologists, World Health Association, and others, we believe it is inappropriate to mandate labeling of this process.

Pasteurized milk has also been implicated in food poisoning incidents: one of the largest Salmonella outbreaks in United States history was caused by pasteurized, homogenized milk that was either improperly pasteurized or contaminated after pasteurization.
Pasteurizing dirty milk is actually more risky than producing clean raw milk, they suggest: if mistakes occur in pasteurization or if post-pasteurization contamination occurs, bacterial contamination may be more extensive, as in the record 1985 salmonella outbreak in Illinois, which infected over 5,500 people.

 CU comments on the FDA proposed changes to irradiation labeling
In addition, FDA should not allow the term “pasteurized” to be used in lieu of “irradiated.” Lots of consumer research—by FDA, USDA and various consumer groups—have all clearly shown that people consider the terms associated with “pasteurization”—such as “cold pasteurized” or “electronic pasteurization”—to be misleading when applied to irradiated food.
“cold pasteurization” or “electronic pasteurization,” as such terms would be misleading to consumers.
For crabmeat, FDA pasteurization criterion is more than a 12-log reduction in type E C. botulinum (bacteria responsible for botulism); for seafood in general the criterion is 6-log reduction in non-proteolytic C. botulinum.
