Description:  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is revoking the standard of identity 
and the standard of quality for frozen cherry pie. This action, in part, responds to a citizen petition 
submitted by the American Bakers Association (ABA). We conclude that these standards are no 
longer necessary to promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest  of consumers. Revocation of 
the standards of identity and quality for frozen cherry pie will provide greater flexibility in the 
product's manufacture, consistent with comparable, nonstandardized foods available in the 
marketplace.  
This rule is effective 1 5 April 2024.
