SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a notice published in the **Federal Register** of May 30, 1986 (51 FR 19610), 1 we announced that we had filed a food additive petition (FAP 6A3930), submitted by Ranks, Hovis, McDougall Research, Ltd., c/o 2550 M St. NW, Washington, DC 20037. Responsibility for the petition subsequently transferred to Marlow Foods Ltd. (currently Marlow Foods Ltd. dba Quorn Foods (Marlow) c/o 1401 Eye St. NW, Suite 800, Washington, DC 20005). The petition proposed to amend the food additive regulations in 21 CFR part 172 to provide for the safe use of mycoprotein, derived from *Fusarium graminearum* (taxonomically reclassified as *Fusarium venenatum* ), as a direct source of protein in certain foods.
Marlow has now withdrawn the petition without prejudice to a future filing (21 CFR 171.7). 1 Although the filing notice refers to the subject as “myco-protein,” we are using a nonhyphenated name ( *i.e.,* “mycoprotein”) in this withdrawal notification. Dated: April 29, 2022. Lauren K. Roth, Associate Commissioner for Policy. [FR Doc. 2022-09609 Filed 5-4-22; 8:45 am]
