It was expected in 1999, but the GRAS committee requested another study. Even though the request was for a benign study, it takes time. Additionally, BINC is not running the show, relative to declaring GRAS, MD Foods is. GRAS could be declared now it just would not have the unanimous blessings of the GRAS committee. That is the single reason BINC isn't already much higher. One thing to remember is that tagatose can already be sold worldwide, excluding the U.S., but MDFI wants this market first, knowing all the others will follow. Remember, Wrigleys already has the patent for gum made from tagatose. <gg>
