Canned Tomatoes Deviating From Identity Standard; Extension of Temporary Permit for Market Testing

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the extension of a temporary permit issued to Del Monte Corp. to market test canned tomato products that deviate from the U.S. standard of identity for canned tomatoes. The extension will allow the permit holder to continue to collect data on consumer acceptance of the products while the agency takes action on a petition to amend the standard of identity for canned tomatoes that was submitted by the permit holder.
