(1) LIMITATIONS ON SALE AND DISTRIBUTION. No person may sell or distribute for sale as human food any eggs that fail to meet tolerance standards for U.S. Consumer Grade B eggs under U.S. standards, grades, and weight classes for shell eggs, regardless of whether the eggs are labeled as graded or ungraded eggs. No individual case of Grade B quality eggs may contain a percentage of grade B quality eggs that is more than 10 percentage points greater than the minimum permitted for the lot average. This section does not apply to eggs which are clearly labeled as "ungraded" as required under s. ATCP 88.34(1) (b) and which the egg producer sells directly to a consumer on the premises where the eggs are produced or as part of a community-supported agriculture business.
