Oatmeal Raisin Cookies from Japan
Oatmeal raisin cookies are chewy biscuits made with rolled oats, raisins, and spices. They are classified under tariff item 1905.90.49 as 'other biscuits' because they do not contain 25% or more by weight of wheat and are not specially formulated for dietary needs. The oats and raisins are standard ingredients that do not affect the tariff classification.
