La. Admin. Code tit. 49, § I-935 - Label, Common or Usual Name [Formerly 49:3.0700]
A. The name of a meat or meat product used on
any labeling shall be the common or usual name, if any there be, and one which
clearly and completely identifies the article. Any meat or meat food product
which has been prepared by salting, smoking, drying, cooking, chopping and the
like shall be so described on the label unless the name of the article implies,
or the manner of packaging shows, that the meat or meat product was subjected
to such procedure or procedures. The unqualified terms, "meat," "meat
byproduct," "meat food product," and terms common to the meat industry but not
to the consumer, such as "picnic," "butt," "cala," "square," "loaf," "spread,"
"delight," "roll," "plate," "luncheon," and "dairy," shall not be used as names
of articles unless accompanied by terms descriptive of the meat or meat product
or with a list of the ingredients.
