SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In the
Federal Register
of Thursday, August 13, 2020, (85 FR 49240), FDA published the final rule “Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or Hydrolyzed Foods” with a typographical error in the
SUMMARY
section. In addition, the rule was published with two different effective dates.
In FR Doc. 2020-17088, appearing in the
Federal Register
of Thursday, August 13, 2020, the following corrections are made:
On page 49241, in the first column, the second sentence is corrected to read as follows: “These requirements are needed to help ensure that individuals with celiac disease are not misled and receive truthful and accurate information with respect to fermented or hydrolyzed foods labeled as `gluten-free.'”
On page 49254, in section VI. Effective and Compliance Dates, in the first column, the first sentence is corrected to read as follows: “This rule is effective October 13, 2020.” This confirms the rule is effective October 13, 2020, and is consistent with the effective date stated earlier on page 49241.
