FDA notes
The article is subject to refusal of admission pursuant to Section 801(a)(3) of the FD&C Act in that it appears to be misbranded within the meaning of: Section 403(q) of the Act in that the Nutrition Facts Label is not in accordance with 21 CFR 101.9. The label fails to declare a serving size based on the reference amount customarily consumed (RACC) (21 CFR 101.12(b), Table 2, and 21 CFR 101.9(b)(2). The product label declares 1 cup (55g); however, the appropriate RACC for entrees with sauce (e.g., fish with cream sauce, shrimp with lobster sauce) is 140 grams cooked, with a recommended label statement “_ cup(s) (_ g); 5 oz (140 g/visual unit of measure) if not measurable by cup.” Therefore, all nutrient information is incorrectly declared (21 CFR 101.12(b)). Section 403(i)(2) of the Act in that product is fabricated from two or more ingredients and each ingredient is not declared on the label or is not declared by its common or usual name (21 CFR 101.4). Sub-ingredients in “soft drink” and “seasoning” are not listed in the ingredient statement on product label. The terms “mixture 1” and “mixture 2” are not the common or usual names for an ingredient. If the ingredient listed as “D-Sorbitol” is actually “Sorbitol,” it must be declared as such (21 CFR 184.1835). “Glucose” is not declared by an appropriate common or usual name in accordance with 21 CFR 101.4(a) if this ingredient meets one of standards of identity in 21 CFR 168 “Sweeteners and Table Sirups. It is not clear if “plum syrup” is a multicomponent ingredient and/or whether it is an appropriate common or usual name. Section 403(f) of the Act. The product label contains information in two languages but does not repeat all the required information in both languages (21 CFR 101.15(c)(2)). The ingredient statement, “Contains” statement, and the net quantity of contents must be declared in both English and the foreign language. | The article is subject to refusal of admission pursuant to Section 801(a)(3) of the FD&C Act in that it appears to be misbranded within the meaning of: Section 403(q) of the Act in that the Nutrition Facts Label is not in accordance with 21 CFR 101.9.
