TITLE 21--FOOD AND DRUGS
CHAPTER I--FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES (CONTINUED)
PART 130 FOOD STANDARDS: GENERAL--Table of Contents
Subpart A General Provisions
Sec. 130.14 General statements of substandard quality and substandard fill
of container.
For the purposes of regulations promulgated under section 401 of the
act:
(a) The term general statement of substandard quality means the
statement ``Below Standard in Quality Good Food--Not High Grade''
printed in two lines of Cheltenham bold condensed caps. The words
``Below Standard in Quality'' constitute the first line, and the second
immediately follows. If the quantity of the contents of the container is
less than 1 pound, the type of the first line is 12-point, and of the
second, 8-point. If such quantity is 1 pound or more, the type of the
first line is 14-point, and of the second, 10-point. Such statement is
enclosed within lines, not less than 6 points in width, forming a
rectangle. Such statement, with enclosing lines, is on a strongly
contrasting, uniform background, and is so placed as to be easily seen
when the name of the food or any pictorial representation thereof is
viewed, wherever such name or representation appears so conspicuously as
to be easily seen under customary conditions of purchase.
(b) The term general statement of substandard fill means the
statement ``Below Standard in Fill'' printed in Cheltenham bold
condensed caps. If the quantity of the contents of the container is less
than 1 pound, the statement is in 12-point type; if such quantity is 1
pound or more, the statement is in 14-point type. Such statement is
enclosed within lines, not less than 6 points in width, forming a
rectangle; but if the statement specified in paragraph (a) of this
section is also used, both statements (one following the other) may be
enclosed within the same rectangle. Such statement or statements, with
enclosing lines, are on a strongly contrasting, uniform background, and
are so placed as to be easily seen when the name of the food or any
pictorial representation thereof is viewed, wherever such name or
representation appears so conspicuously as to be easily seen under
customary conditions of purchase.
