FDA Approves New Simplesse: The Food and Drug Administration has approved a new version of Simplesse, meaning the fat substitute can now be used in everything from mayonnaise to pastries, product developer NutraSweet Co. said. The new, non-frozen version of Simplesse is made from a whey protein found in milk, NutraSweet said. The company, a subsidiary of Monsanto Co., said low-fat products made with the substitute will have the same taste and texture as those with high levels of fat.
