854                              Laws of Maryland                      [Ch. 422

(6)    If it purports to be or is represented as food for which a
definition and standard of identity has been prescribed by regula-
tions as provided by Section 188A, unless (1) it conforms to such
definition and standard, and (2) its label bears the name of the
food specified in the definition and standard, and, insofar as may
be required by such regulations, the common names of optional in-
gredients (other than spices, flavoring, and coloring) present in
such food.

(7)    If it purports to be or is represented as:

(i) a food for which a standard of quality has been prescribed
by regulations as provided by Section 188A and its quality falls
below the standard of quality the regulations specify, unless its
label bears, in manner and form as the regulations specify, a state-
ment that it falls below the standard.

(8)    If it is not subject to the provisions of subsection (b) of this
section, unless it bears labeling clearly giving (i) the common or
usual name of the food, if any there be and (ii) in case it is fabri-
cated from two or more ingredients, the common or usual name of
each ingredient; except that spices, flavorings, and colorings, other
than those sold as such, may be designated as spices, flavorings,
and colorings without naming each; provided, however, that to the
extent that compliance with the requirements of clause (ii) of this
subsection is impractical or results in deception or unfair competition,
exemptions shall be established by regulations promulgated by the
Secretary.

(9)    If it purports to be or is represented for special dietary uses,
unless its label bears such information concerning its vitamin, min-
eral, and other dietary properties as the Secretary determines to
be, and by regulations prescribes as, necessary in order fully to
inform purchasers as to its value for such uses.

(10)    If it bears or contains any artificial flavoring, artificial color-
ing, or chemical preservative, unless it bears labeling stating that
fact; provided, however, that to the extent that compliance with the
requirements of this subsection is impracticable, exemptions shall
be established by regulations promulgated by the Secretary. The
provisions of this subsection and of paragraphs (8) and (12) with
respect to artificial coloring shall not apply to butter, cheese, or ice
cream.

(11)    If it is a product intended as an ingredient of another food
and when used according to the directions of the purveyor will result
in the final food product being adulterated or misbranded.

(12)    If it is a color additive unless its packaging and labeling
are in conformity with the packaging and labeling requirements
applicable to the color additive prescribed under the provisions of
the Federal Act.

(13) IF, AFTER ITS MANUFACTURING OR PROCESSING
OR PACKAGING, THE FOOD WAS IN A FROZEN STATE AND
IF IT IS BEING OFFERED FOR SALE IN AN UNFROZEN
STATE UNLESS THE LABELING CLEARLY AND CONSPIC-
UOUSLY STATES THAT THE FOOD SHOULD NOT BE RE-
FROZEN.
