    SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a final 
    rule that appeared in the Federal Register of January 30, 1996 (61 FR

    for the safe use of sucrose esterified with medium and long chain fatty 
    acids (olestra) as a replacement for fats and oils. The document was 
    published with some typographical errors. This document corrects those 
    errors.

    comments on the labeling requirement (Sec. 172.867(c)) by April 1, 
    1996.
