Grading and Inspection, General Specifications for Approved Plants and Standards for Grades of Dairy Products; United States Standards for Grades of Whipped Butter

Краткое содержание

This final rule promulgates new United States Standards for Grades of Whipped Butter. These standards establish quality criteria for grade determination and optional microbiological and keeping- quality tests for whipped butter. The Department has determined that the grading of butter sold in consumer-size packages bearing USDA official identification (grade- label) should be conducted when the product is in the final package. Previously, the quality of whipped butter was evaluated prior to the whipping process using the U.S. Standards for Grades of Butter. The U.S. Standards for Grades of Whipped Butter change this procedure.
