Abstract
U ovom je radu opisana i uspoređena zakonska regulativa o hrani i označavanja hrane u Republici Hrvatskoj (RH) i Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama (SAD). Na primjerima označavanja sireva, mineralnih voda i voćnih sokova pokazano je kako proizvod mora biti označen na tržištu SAD-a, a kako na tržištu RH. U radu su opisani i opći uvjeti za uvoz hrane iz RH u SAD i iz SAD-a u RH. Ovaj je rad pokazao da se zakonska regulativa o hrani i označavanju hrane kao i uvjeti uvoza hrane u RH i SAD-u značajno razlikuju o čemu hrvatski izvoznici koji žele ući na tržište SAD-a moraju voditi računa, a isto važi i za američke izvoznike zainteresirane za hrvatsko tržište. U radu je korištena metoda komparativne analize.This paper has described and compared legal framework for food and food labeling in the Republic of Croatia and the United States of America (US).
