Labelling of articles of food containing preservative
and of preservatives.
1. The articles of food containing preservative to which the rules as to labelling set out in this Schedule apply are sausages, sausage-meat, coffee extract, pickles and sauces, and (where the proportion of benzoic acid exceeds 600 parts per million) grape juice and wine. In retail shops it will be sufficient if a notice to the effect that the article contains preservative is exhibited in a conspicuous place so as to be easily readable by a purchaser. These rules do not apply in the case of hotels, restaurants, or such other places where the article is sold for consumption on the premises.
