The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled “Labeling of Plant-Based Alternatives to Animal-Derived Foods.” This draft guidance, when finalized, will provide FDA recommendations on best practices for naming and labeling of certain plant-based foods that are marketed and sold as alternatives for animal-derived foods (plant-based alternative foods), especially in the absence of a common or usual name for the product. This draft guidance does not address the naming and labeling of plant-based milk alternatives; FDA is providing recommendations regarding these products in a separate guidance document.
Submit either electronic or written comments on the draft guidance by May 7, 2025 to ensure your comment on the draft guidance is considered before the FDA begins work on the final version of the guidance. Submit electronic or written comments on the proposed collection of information in the draft guidance by March 10, 2025.
