{"abstract":"The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend the standard of identity for peanut butter to remove the statement that added vitamins are not suitable ingredients of this food. If this change is adopted, manufacturers will be able to add vitamins to make modified peanut butter in accordance with the agency's general definition and standard of identity for food named by the use of a nutrient content claim (such as ``reduced fat'' or ``reduced calorie'') and a standardized term (peanut butter). FDA is proposing to take this action because it tentatively finds that providing for modified forms of peanut butter will assist consumers in maintaining healthy dietary practices. Thus, the agency tentatively concludes that this action will promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers.","action":"Proposed rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Food and Drug Administration","name":"Food and Drug Administration","id":199,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/food-and-drug-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/199","parent_id":221,"slug":"food-and-drug-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/1994/02/03/94-2359.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":164,"title":21}],"citation":null,"comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"1994-04-04","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments by April 4, 1994.
