 Docket # 2007P-0085 



Adopt Regulations of General Applicability to all Food Standards that would Permit Deviations from the Requirements of the Individual Food Standards of Identity 





Dear FDA:



We solicit your support against  the proposed and pending changes to chocolate (Docket # 2007P-0085), submitted by the Grocery Manufacturers Association/Food Products Association (GMA/FPA) on behalf of a number of organizations including the Chocolate Manufacturers Association (CMA). We understand that as part of this petition, the CMA has petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to approve a change in the Standard of Identity for chocolate products to allow for the use vegetable fats in chocolate and milk substitutes and to be permitted to call the product chocolate.  



We are opposed to these changes and say to GMA/FPI and particularly to the CMA, 



There is enough "cheap chocolate" out there already!!!!



Dont Mess with Our Chocolate.
