06 Aug 2015 --- The Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) has petitioned the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) to approve specific low-level uses of Partially Hydrogenated Oil (PHOs) in food products. In a food additive petition filed with the FDA, GMA said the scientific evidence will enable FDA to find there is a "reasonable certainty of no harm" from consumption of PHOs from the uses and use levels specified in the submission.
