WASHINGTON, July 17 -- Food and Drug Administration has issued a proposed rule called: Proposal To Revoke 23 Standards of Identity for Foods.
The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on July 17 by Robert F. Kennedy, Secretary, .
Summary: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is proposing to revoke 23 standards of identity for food.
