§ 39352 Margarine Shipping Labeling Requirements

• •You can't ship margarine or dairy spreads unless they are labeled correctly.
• •The label must show the true name of the product.
• •This rule applies to anyone shipping these products or carriers receiving them.
• •If the product is just passing through California from another country, this rule doesn’t apply.

A company tries to ship a tub of margarine labeled as 'butter'.

This is against the law because the label is wrong. The tub must be labeled as 'margarine' or its real name.
