<body>
<p>The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to rescind the regulations at 9 CFR 424.22 that require FSIS to collect samples of pumped bacon from producing establishments and analyze them for nitrosamines because FSIS no longer conducts this testing.</p>
<p>FSIS also is proposing to amend its labeling requirements for meat and poultry products to establish new definitions for cured and uncured.</p>
