French Dressing; Revocation of a Standard of Identity (Final Rule) Final Regulatory Impact Analysis (FRIA)

This final rule revokes the standard of identity for French dressing.  We conclude that this standard no longer promotes honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers. We also conclude that revoking the standard could provide greater flexibility in the product’s manufacture, consistent with comparable, nonstandardized foods available in the marketplace.  We conclude that this final rule to revoke the standard of identity for French dressing would provide social benefits at little to no cost to the respective industries.
