FOOTNOTES
1. These values represents the amount (edible portion) of food customarily consumed per eating occasion and were primarily derived from the 1977-1978 and the 1987-1988 Nationwide Food Consumption Surveys conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. 2. Unless otherwise noted in the Reference Amount column, the reference amounts are for the ready-to-serve or almost ready-to-serve form of the product (i.e., heat and serve, brown and serve). If not listed separately, the reference amount for the unprepared form (e.g., dry mixes; concentrates; dough; batter; dry, fresh, and frozen pasta) is the amount required to make the reference amount of the prepared form. Prepared means prepared for consumption (e.g., cooked). 3. Manufacturers are required to convert the reference amount to the label serving size in a household measure most appropriate to their specific product using the procedures in 21 CFR 101.9(b). 4. Copies of the list of products for each product category are available from the Office of Food Labeling (HFS09150), Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Food and Drug Administration, 200 C. St., S.W., Washington, DC 20204. 5. The label statements are meant to provide guidance on the presentation of serving size information the label, but they are not required. The term "piece" is used as a generic description of a discrete unit. Manufacturers should use the description of a unit that is most appropriate for the specific product (e.g., sandwich for sandwiches, cookie for cookies, and bar for ice cream bar). The guidance provided is for the label statement of products in ready to serve or almost ready to serve form. The guidance does not apply to the products which require further preparation for consumption (e.g., dry mixes, concentrates) unless specifically stated in the product category, reference amount, or label statement column that it is for these form of the product. For products that require further preparation, manufacturers must determine the label statement following the rules in 101.9(b) using the reference amount determined ATTACHMENT 5 35 according to 101.12(C). 6. Includes cakes that weigh 10g per cubic inch. 7. Includes cakes that weight 4g or more per cubic inch but less than 10g per cubic inch. 8. Includes cake that weighs less than 4g per cubic inch. 9. Label serving size for ice cream cones and eggs of all sizes will be 1 unit. Label serving size of all chewing gums that weigh more than the reference amount that can reasonably be consumed at a single-eating occasion will be 1 unit. 10. Animal products not covered under the Federal Meat Inspection Act or the Poultry Producers Act, such as flesh products from deer, bison, rabbit, quail, wild turkey, geese, ostrich, etc. 12. The reference amount for the uncooked form does not apply to raw fish in 101.45 or to single-ingredient products that consist of fish or game meat as provided for in 101.9(I)(11). 13. For raw fruit, vegetables and fish, manufacturers should follow the label statement for the serving size specified in Appendices A and B to the regulation entitled "Food Labeling: guidelines for Voluntary Nutrition Labeling; and Identification of the 20 Most Frequently Consumed Raw Fruits, Vegetables and Fish; definition of substantial compliance; Correction" (56 FR 60880 as amended 57 8174, March 6, 1992). 11.

Pizza sauce is part of the pizza and is not considered to be a sauce topping. ATTACHMENT 5 36
