Not all USDA meat and poultry contain vaccines. Vaccination is primarily used in livestock to prevent diseases before they are processed, but the vaccines do not remain in the meat itself. The USDA regulates the use of vaccines in animals, ensuring that any residues are within safe limits and that the meat is safe for consumption. Always check with specific producers or labels for detailed information.
The seal means that the USDA has tested and approved the meat or poultry for market sale. Hope this helped! :)
According to the USDA, the U.S. meat and poultry industry is spread among all 50 states
I believe the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is in charge of most food labels and the USDA (US Dept. of Agriculture) is in charge of labeling meat and poultry.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) assigns grades to meat, poultry, and eggs based on factors such as marbling, meat color, and fat content. These grades help determine the quality of the product and are used by producers, retailers, and consumers to make purchasing decisions. The USDA grades for meat include Prime, Choice, Select, Standard, and a few others.
Beef = Cow Pork = Pig Poultry = Chicken, Turkey. Sorry, but I couldn't help the joke. It depends where you are from. Meats are generally found on local farms, and is rarely imported as meat from abroad cannot usually pass USDA standards.
The USDA regulates most meat and poultry products. Wheat products are regulated by the FDA.No one is upset with this because the FDA does regulate bleaching and enrichment of wheat.
USDA means the United States Department of Agriculture Approved. You should only eat meat with the USDA stamp and it should have a grade with it, like premium

The Federal Meat Inspection Act of 1906 (FMIA) was a United States Congress Act that worked to prevent adulterated or misbranded meat and meat products from being sold as food and to ensure that meat and meat products are slaughtered and processed under sanitary conditions. These requirements also apply to imported meat products, which must be inspected under equivalent foreign standards. USDA inspection of poultry was added by the Poultry Products Inspection Act of 1957. The Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act authorizes the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to provide inspection services for all livestock and poultry species not listed in the FMIA or PPIA, including venison and buffalo. The Agricultural Marketing Act authorizes the USDA to offer voluntary, fee-for-service inspection services for these same species.
The USDA's Meat and Poultry Hotline recommends that any meat not be held out of refrigeration for more than 2 hours. If the ambient temperature is 90 degrees F or greater, then it should not be out of refrigeration for more than 1 hour.
