Public comments are apparently open but it's actually not clear how one can add a public comment:

From what I can tell, there are actually two proposed rules and you can find the links to the FederalRegister.gov publications at http://www.fda.gov/Food/GuidanceRegulation/GuidanceDocuments... and then once they are published, you can use the docket #s on Regulations.gov to make comments.
