(i) In the case of a single-serving container, the metric amount in parentheses indicated in the net weight statement on the main dashboard is not required, unless nutritional information is required in accordance with section 101.9(b)(9) on a drained net weight basis. However, if a manufacturer voluntarily provides the metric quantity for products that can be sold as single servings, the numerical value declared as part of the portion size declaration must be the same as the metric quantity declaration declared as part of the net quantity of contents. 2. The quantitative information required by points (d)(7)(i) and (d)(7)(ii) of this Section shall be provided for the form of the product in the packaging and for any other form of the product (e.g. `in preparation` or in combination with another ingredient referred to in paragraph (e)(5) of this Section. (1) An “insignificant amount” is defined as the amount that can be declared zero on the nutrition label, except that, for total carbohydrates, fibre and protein, it is an amount that allows a declaration of “less than 1 gram”. (B) This provision does not apply to raw fruits, vegetables and seafood for which voluntary nutrition labelling is provided for in the labelling or advertising of the product or where claims are made about the product. Trans fats are most commonly found in oils that have been processed using a method called partial hydrogenation.5 The FDA has used “trans fats” and “trans fats” interchangeably, just as it uses “saturated fat” and “saturated fat.” 6 Although the FDA is slowly eliminating the use of trans fats, food manufacturers still have to include them in nutrition labeling.7 Like total fats and saturated fats, if there are less than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving, it can be expressed as zero. When specifying the splitting disc, manufacturers should use 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6 or smaller fractions that can be produced by dividing more by 2 or 3.
6. `total carbohydrate` or `total carbohydrate` means the number of grams of total carbohydrate in a portion, expressed to the nearest gram, except that, where a portion contains less than 1 gram, the words `contains less than 1 gram` or `less than 1 gram` may be used alternately or if the portion contains less than 0,5 grams; Content can be expressed as zero. The total carbohydrate content is calculated by subtracting the sum of crude protein, total fat, moisture and ash from the total weight of the food. This method of calculation is described in A. L. Merrill and B. K. Watt, “Energy Value of Foods – Basis and Derivation,” USDA Handbook 74 (slightly revised 1973), pp. 2-3, which is referenced by reference 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR Part 51 (the availability of this inclusion by reference is set forth in paragraph (c)(1)(i)(A) of this section).
(v) Where a food referred to in point (j)(13) of this Section is contained in gift packaging due to its small size, it need not be included in the determination of the nutrition information referred to in point (h) of this Section, unless it is expressly mentioned in an advertising catalogue as being present in the gift box. and: If a percentage of the daily reference value (DRV) of the protein is indicated on the label, the “quality score” of the protein must be determined. Due to cost and difficulty in determining quality factors, many nutrition labels do not include DRVs. (16) Foods sold from large containers: provided that the nutrition information required under this Section is clearly visible to consumers, either on the labelling of the large container or in accordance with paragraph (a)(2) of this Section.
