Section 5-304 - Food: Labeling; Prominence of Required Statements
Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 3, March 22, 2024
A word, statement, or other information required by or under authority of the Act to appear on the label may lack that prominence and conspicuousness required by Section 39-25-110(f) by reason (among other reasons) of:
(a) The failure of such word, statement, or information to appear on the part or panel of the label which is presented or displayed under customary conditions of purchase;
(b) The failure of such word, statement, or information to appear on two or more parts or panels of the label, each of which has sufficient space therefor, and each of which is so designed as to render it likely to be, under customary conditions of purchase, the part or panel displayed;
(c) The failure of the label to extend over the area of the container of package available for such extension, so as to provide sufficient label space for the prominent placing of such word, statement, or information;
(d) Insufficiency of label space (for the prominent placing of such word, statement, or information) resulting from the use of label space for any word, statement, design, or device which is not required by or under authority of the Act to appear on the label;
(e) Insufficiency of label space (for the prominent placing of such word, statement, or information) resulting from the use of label space to give materially greater conspicuousness to any other word, statement, or information, or to any design or device; or
(f) Smallness or style of type in which such word, statement, or information appears, insufficient background contrast, obscuring designs or vignettes, or crowding with other written, printed, or graphic matter.
