| 2019-12983 | The Declaration of Added Sugars on Honey, Maple Syrup, Other Single-Ingredient Sugars and Syrups, and Certain Cranberry Products; Guidance for Industry; Availability | Rule | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the availability of a final guidance for industry entitled "The Declaration of Added Sugars on Honey, Maple Syrup, Other Single- Ingredient Sugars and Syrups, and Certain Cranberry Products." This guidance provides clarification on the labeling requirements for single-ingredient packages and/or containers of pure honey, pure maple syrup, and other pure sugars and syrups, which are not required to bear the words "Includes Xg Added Sugars," but must still include the percent Daily Value for added sugars on their labels. This guidance is also intended to advise food manufacturers of our intent to exercise enforcement discretion related to the use of a "[dagger]" symbol immediately following the percent Daily Value for added sugars on single-ingredient packages and/or containers of pure honey, pure maple syrup, and other pure sugars and syrups; the "[dagger]" symbol would lead the consumer to a statement that is truthful and not misleading in a footnote at the bottom of the Nutrition Facts label. The guidance also advises food manufacturers of our intent to exercise enforcement discretion with respect to the use of a "[dagger]" symbol immediately after the added sugars percent Daily Value information that leads the consumer to a statement that is truthful and not misleading outside of the Nutrition Facts label on certain dried cranberry and cranberry beverage products that are made up of cranberry juice sweetened with added sugars and that contain total sugars at levels no greater than comparable products with endogenous (inherent) sugars, but no added sugars. Further, this guidance advises of our intent to exercise enforcement discretion regarding compliance with Nutrition Facts label final rule and Serving Size final rule requirements until July 1, 2021, for the single-ingredient sugars and syrups as well as the cranberry products discussed in the guidance document. | 2019-06-20 | 2019 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/06/20/2019-12983/the-declaration-of-added-sugars-on-honey-maple-syrup-other-single-ingredient-sugars-and-syrups-and | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-06-20/pdf/2019-12983.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Food and Drug Administration | 221,199 | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the availability of a final guidance for industry entitled "The Declaration of Added Sugars on Honey, Maple Syrup, Other Single- Ingredient Sugars and Syrups, and Certain Cranberry Products."... |
