Abstract
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is amending the Federal meat inspection regulations to permit the use of corn syrup, corn syrup solids, and glucose syrup as flavoring agents in meat products at an amount sufficient for that purpose. Corn syrup is listed in the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) regulations as a substance generally recognized as safe with no limitation on its use other than good manufacturing practice. This direct final rule is in response to a petition.
