Canned Tuna Deviating From Identity Standard; Temporary Permit for Market Testing
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) received applications for temporary permits from Bumble Bee Foods, LLC; Chicken of the Sea International; and StarKist Seafood Company (the applicants). We are announcing that we have issued temporary permits to the applicants to market test products (designated as "canned tuna" products) that deviate from the U.S. standard of identity for canned tuna. The purpose of the temporary permits is to market test the product throughout the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The permits will allow the applicants to measure consumer acceptance of the products and assess the commercial feasibility of the products.
