Import Tips
• Ensure pieces are larger than puree to stay in 2002.10; measure average piece size during inspection
• Comply with FDA low-acid canned food regulations, including process filing and incubation tests
• Avoid mislabeling as 'stewed' which could shift to 2005 if vegetables are homogenized
