Please join us for Keller and Heckman LLP’s complimentary webinars on FDA's New GRAS Proposal - What it Means for You.
As FDA considers a proposed rule that would require companies to notify the agency when making a Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) determination, stakeholders across the food and beverage, food ingredient, and food-contact industries are closely watching what could become the most significant change to the GRAS framework in decades.
Join the attorneys of Keller and Heckman as they break down the proposed rule, explain what it could mean for industry manufacturers and companies, and share key considerations as the industry prepares to evaluate potential impacts and submit comments to FDA.
