                                The FDA regulates materials for repeated food contact under Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and the answer to whether a specific gum rubber is FDA approved depends entirely on its formulation and manufacturing process. Not all gum rubber is the same, and generic versions lack the required compliance for sensitive applications.
