36.6 Canned oysters; fill of container; label statement of substandard fill. [Added]

§ 36.6 Canned oysters; fill of container; label statement of substandard fill. (a) The standard of fill of containers for canned oysters when the drained weight of the oysters in the can after processing averages less than 2 avoirdupois ounce per oyster is a fill such that the drained weight of oysters taken from each container is not less than 68 percent of the water capacity of the container.

(b) For the purposes of this section canned oysters means oysters packed into containers which are then sealed and processed by heat to prevent spoilage.

(c) Water capacity of containers is determined by the general method provided in § 10.1 (a) of this chapter.

(d) Drained weight is determined by the following method:

Keep the unopened canned oyster container at a temperature of not less than 68° or more than 95° Fahrenheit for at least 12 hours immediately preceding the determination. After opening, tilt the container so as to distribute its contents evenly over the meshes of a circular sieve which has been previously weighed. The diameter of the sieve is 8 inches if the quantity of the contents of the container is less than 3 pounds, and 12 inches if such quantity is 3 pounds or more. The bottom of the sieve is woven-wire cloth which complies with the specifications for such cloth set forth under "2380 Micron (No. 8)," in Table I of "Standard Specifications for Sieves," published March 1, 1940 in L. C. 584 of the U. S. Department of Commerce, National Bureau of Standards. Without shifting the material on the sieve, so incline the sieve as to facilitate drainage. Two minutes from the time drainage begins, weigh the sieve and the drained oysters. The weight so found, less the weight of the sieve, shall be considered to be the drained weight of the oysters.

(e) If canned oysters fall below the standard of fill of container prescribed in paragraph (a) of this section, the label shall bear the general statement of

substandard fill specified in § 10.2 (b) of this chapter (21 CFR, Cum. Supp.), in the manner and form therein specified, followed by the statement, "A can of this size should contain oz. of oysters. This can contains only oz.," the blanks being filled in with the applicable figures.
