[43 FR 8795, Mar. 3, 1978]
Each retail establishment (except restaurants) that sells food that contains saccharin shall display the following notice in the locations set forth in paragraph
(b) of this section:
Each notice shall be displayed prominently, in a manner highly visible to consumers (e.g., not shielded by other store signs or merchandise displays) and
set up to reduce the likelihood that a notice will be torn, defaced, or removed.
(a) The notice shall be printed in a combination of red and black ink on white card stock and be at least 11 by 14 inches. The background of the bold
heading, “Saccharin Notice,” and the boxed warning statement shall be bright red and the lettering, white. The remaining background shall be white with
black ink. All lettering shall be in gothic typeface.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section, each retail establishment that sells food that contains saccharin shall display a notice in each of the
following three locations:
(1) Near the entrance to the retail establishment and arranged so that consumers are likely to see the notice upon entering.
(2) Centrally located in the area of the retail establishment in which soft drinks containing saccharin are displayed. If there is more than one such place,
then in the area where the greatest quantity of diet soft drinks are displayed.
(3) In the area in the establishment in which the largest quantity of saccharin-containing foods (including saccharin sold in package form as a sugar
substitute) are displayed, other than the area where diet soft drinks are displayed.
(c) The following are exceptions to the requirements set forth in paragraph (b) of this section:
(1) A retail establishment with 3,200 square feet or less of floor space shall display at least one notice. The notice shall be located near the entrance to the
retail establishment and arranged so that consumers are likely to see the notice upon entering.
(2) A retail establishment with more than 3,200 but less than 10,000 square feet of floor space shall display at least two notices. The first notice shall be
located near the entrance to the retail establishment and arranged so that consumers are likely to see the notice upon entering. The second notice shall be
centrally located in the area of the retail establishment in which soft drinks containing saccharin are displayed. If there is more than one such place, then
in the area where the greatest quantity of diet soft drinks are displayed. If diet soft drinks are not sold, then in the area of the establishment in which the
largest quantity of saccharin-containing foods (including saccharin sold in package form as a sugar substitute) are displayed.
(3) A large retail establishment, e.g., department store, whose primary business consists of selling nonfood items (i.e., the proportion of food sold is
extremely small compared to other items) shall display at least one notice. The notice shall be located in the area of the establishment in which foods
containing saccharin are displayed. If there is more than one such area, then a notice shall be displayed in each area.
(d) Each manufacturer of saccharin-containing food who customarily delivers his products directly to retail establishments shall make available at least
three notices to each retail establishment in which his products are sold. Each manufacturer shall also arrange to supply additional notices to a retail
establishment that asks for them.
