 According
to the Food Safety and Inspection Service of the USDA, (the government
body that regulates food labeling), all fresh meat qualifies
as "natural."
Products
labeled "natural" cannot contain any artificial flavor
or flavoring, coloring ingredient, chemical preservative, or any
other artificial or synthetic ingredient; and the product and its
ingredients are not more than minimally processed (ground, for
example).
 That’s it! No mention of growing techniques. No restrictions
on feed, veterinary care, or growth stimulants. If a natural
producer decides to promote the fact that his or her cattle were
raised without antibiotics or growth hormones, an additional
label is added to the package.
Certified Organic Beef is a fully verifiable production system
that collects information on the history of every animal in the
program, including its breed history, veterinary care, and feed.
