substances except milk, cream, or salt, and contains not more than six- 

 teen (16) per cent of water and at least eighty-two and five-tenths (82.5) 

 per cent of milk fat. 



e. CHEESE. 



1. Cheese is the sound, solid, and ripened product made from milk or 

 cream by coagulating the casein thereof with rennet or lactic acid, with 

 or without the addition of ripening ferments and seasoning, and con- 

 tains, in the water-free substance, not less than fifty (50) per cent of

 from skim milk by coagulating the casein thereof with rennet or lactic 

 acid, with or without the addition of ripening ferments and seasoning.

 ripened products made from the milks of the animals specified, by

f. ICE CREAMS.* 



1. Ice cream is a frozen product made from cream and sugar, with 

 or without a natural flavoring, and contains not less than fourteen (14) 

 per cent of milk fat. A limited amount of gelatine, starch, eggs or 

 other healthful food constituents may be added to ice cream without 

 statement of fact, and such goods may be called Ice Cream provided 

 the required per cent of milk fat is maintained. If imitation flavoring 

 materials are used, the label must state that fact, as in the case of imi- 

 tation extracts. 



2. Frtiit ice cream is a frozen product made from cream, sugar, and 

 sound, clean, mature fruits, and contains not less than twelve (12) per 

 cent of milk fat. 



3. Ntit ice cream is a frozen product made from cream, sugar,- and 

 sound, nonrancid nuts, and contains not less than twelve (12) per cent 

 of milk fat. 



At soda fountains, ice cream rooms, etc., if it is desired to sell frozen 

 products that do not conform to the standards for ice cream, conspicu- 

 ous signs showing exactly what is being served must be displayed and 

 orders for ice cream can not be lawfully filled by serving substitutes 

 without explaining what they are. 



* Imitation ice cream. Frozen products which contain less milk fat 

 than the standards require, cannot be lawfully sold as ice cream and the 

 word cream cannot be lawfully used upon the label or in any way in 

 connection with such goods, unless it is qualified by some such words 

 as "imitation" or "substitute." Thus a frozen product similar to ice 

 cream or fruit or nut ice cream, except that it carries less milk fat than 

 the standards, may be lawfully labeled "Imitation ice cream" or "Ice 

 cream substitute." If an imitation ice cream contains imitation flavoring 

 matter, this fact must be plainly stated on the label.
