The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the availability of a guidance for industry entitled "Food Labeling: Serving Sizes of Foods That Can Reasonably Be Consumed at One Eating Occasion; Dual-Column Labeling; Updating, Modifying, and Establishing Certain Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed; Serving Size for Breath Mints; and Technical Amendments--Small Entity Compliance Guide." The small entity compliance guide (SECG) is intended to help small entities comply with a final rule we issued in the Federal Register of May 27, 2016, entitled "Food Labeling: Serving Sizes of Foods That Can Reasonably Be Consumed at One Eating Occasion; Dual-Column Labeling; Updating, Modifying, and Establishing Certain Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed; Serving Size for Breath Mints; and Technical Amendments." The final rule is designed to ensure that serving sizes are based on more recent consumption data and that consumers have serving size information on the Nutrition Facts label that will assist them in maintaining healthy dietary practices.
