π Summary
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is issuing an order to repeal the color additive regulation that allows for the use of Orange B for coloring the casings or surfaces of frankfurters and sausages. We have determined that the authorized use of Orange B has been abandoned, and we have concluded that this color additive regulation is outdated and unnecessary. Therefore, FDA is revoking the authorized use in food of Orange B in the color additive regulations.
