S.C. Code Regs. § § 5-316

Current through Register Vol. 48, 12, December 27, 2024
Section 5-316 - Food Labeling; Number of Servings
(a) The label of any package of a food which bears a representation as to the number of servings contained therein shall bear in immediate conjunction with such statement, and in the same size type, a statement of the net quantity (in terms of weight, measure, or numerical count) of each such serving. The latter statement may, however, be expressed in terms that differ from the terms used in the required statement of net quantity of contents (for example, cupfuls, tablespoonfuls, etc.) when such differing term is common to cookery and describes a constant quantity. Such alternative statement must not be misleading in any particular. A statement of the number of units in a package is not in itself a statement of the number of servings.
(b) If there exists a voluntary product standard promulgated pursuant to the procedures found in Part 10, Title 15, Code of Federal Regulations by the Department of Commerce, quantitatively defining the meaning of the term "serving" with respect to a particular food, then any label representation as to the number of servings in such packaged food shall correspond with such quantitative definition.
