Import Tips
• Include ingredient breakdown showing almonds as stuffing to differentiate from plain pitted and support 'other stuffed' claim
• Ensure containers specify net drained weight of olives to comply with preservation labeling standards
• Avoid mixed brines with vinegar traces, as this shifts to heading 2006 per chapter notes
