On July 15, 2025, ASTA submitted comments in response to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) proposed rule titled "Food Labeling: Front-of-Package Nutrition Information." ASTA's comments urge FDA to revise the proposed rule to exempt spice and herbs with insufficient nutrient content in intermediate packages from the proposed FOP labeling requirement, reconcile inconsistencies between the nutrient content claim regulations and interpretive markers, and consider alternative compliance pathways for FOP labeling on these products.
