Airtight Canned Carrot Strips from Japan
Airtight canned carrot strips are julienne-cut carrots that have been cooked and sealed in airtight containers with minimal liquid. They are prepared otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid, not frozen, and are not products of heading 20.06. This falls under tariff item 2005.99.19 as 'Other' carrots, since they are not baby carrots in cans or glass jars.
