| 00-18074 | United States Standards for Grades of Swiss Cheese, Emmentaler Cheese | Notice | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soliciting comments on proposals to change the voluntary United States Standards for Grades of Swiss Cheese, Emmentaler Cheese. AMS is proposing changes that would: (1) Increase the allowable eye size range in Grade A Swiss cheese and define an allowable eye size range for Grade B Swiss cheese; (2) remove the block height recommendation for cheeses produced in rindless blocks; (3) add more clarity to the color requirements for Grades A and B Swiss cheese; (4) correct minor errors that currently exist in the tables; and (5) make minor editorial changes that will make the standard more uniform in appearance and easier to use. These changes are being proposed to strengthen the standard by providing Swiss cheese characteristics that incorporate changes in consumer preferences and facilitate the use of automated portioning and packaging equipment. Editorial changes are also proposed to provide consistency with other dairy product standards. | 2000-07-20 | 2000 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/07/20/00-18074/united-states-standards-for-grades-of-swiss-cheese-emmentaler-cheese | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-07-20/pdf/00-18074.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soliciting comments on proposals to change the voluntary United States Standards for Grades of Swiss Cheese, Emmentaler Cheese.
