It's federal, but I think you just listed all the foods where
country-of-origin labeling is absolutely required -- fresh produce,
fresh meat, and fresh fish.

Processed foods are the problem. Soy milk, canned chili, etc. No
mention of where ingredients are from.

We did contact Trader Joe's to learn that their organic soymilk is
made from North American soybeans, and have gone through the same
exercise on a number of other products.
