LABELING of PRODUCT
3
Public Health – Idaho North Central District regulates individuals or businesses that produce packaged foods
for retail sale and/or wholesale in their own facility. If you are a retailer and package food products (raw or
cooked meat, salads, sandwiches, baked goods, etc. you must comply with the following labeling requirements:

• Each food product must be individually labeled. The label must be clear, visible, and made of food
grade materials
• Each label must have a statement of product identification. This must be either the common or the usual
name of the food in English:
• Each label must have a net weight in both ounces and grams. This is in accordance with the labeling
regulation 21 CFR 101. Example 1oz (28 g)
• Each label must contain the name and address of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor. Example:
Moscow, ID. If your establishment is not listed in the phone book then the physical address is required.
• Each label must list ingredients (common or usual names) in descending order of predominance by
weight.

IN ADDITON:
Retail food establishments that package food using Reduced Oxygen Packaging (ROP or vacuum packing) must
place a bold label containing the following information on each ROP package in a contrasting color. Submit
label and describe how this will be placed on the product.
• Maintain the food at 41F or below;
• For food held at refrigeration temperatures;
o Off – premise consumption: “Discard the food if it is not consumed within 30 calendar days
of its packaging date.
OR
o On-premise consumption: Refrigeration: “Discard the food if it is not served within 30
calendar days of its packaging date” If frozen, the 30 days is accumulative.

MANDATORY LABEL INFORMATION


1. The common name of the food, or absent a common name, an adequately descriptive identity statement.
2. If made from two or more ingredients, a list of ingredients and sub-ingredients in descending order of
predominance by weight, including a declaration of artificial colors, artificial flavors and chemical
preservatives, if contained in the food.
3. An accurate declaration of the net quantity of contents. In both US and Metric measurements. The
second measurement type shall be in brackets.
4. The name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor.
5. The name of the food source for each major food allergen contained in the food unless the food source is
already part of the common or usual name of the ingredient. Food Allergens are: Wheat, eggs, soy, tree
nuts (call out the specific nut), peanuts, fish and milk.
6. Storage Instructions: (if required) i.e.: Maintain below 41F or less, Use or freeze by, Refrigerate after
opening.
7. Lettering size: Lettering on packaging is based on size of packaging. See labeling guide under helpful
links for more details. In no case can the lettering be less than 1/16”.
8. Nutritional labeling statement: A Small Business Labeling Exemption is available for small businesses.
The FDA exemption form can be submitted through the web or paper copy. Nutritional labeling is not
required of retail sales. See Nutritional Labeling under helpful link.

PRODUCT DETAILS
Provide product name, ingredient lists, formulations or recipes, and other information to describe the methods
that address the food safety concerns of this HACCP activity. You must include all chemical preservatives, such
as cure or “pink salt” and brand name, in the ingredient lists.

The regulatory agency, may request the recipe and additional scientific documentation or other information
(e.g., source of recipe used, processing authority letter) that demonstrates food safety is not compromised by the
proposal. Submit product details for each product:

HACCP TEAM MEMBERS

Name Title / Role

MATERIALS and EQUIPMENT


List all materials and equipment used specifically for this specialized process. Provide manufacturer
information specific and relevant to materials and equipment used to verify, control or meet the critical limits.
Materials and equipment required depend on your specific process method. Example:

Item Manufacturer Model Number


ROP Machine
ROP Bags
Thermometer
Data Logger
pH Meter
Water Activity Meter
Etc.

6
FLOW DIAGRAM
Include a food flow diagram for each activity or food category in this HACCP plan submittal. Diagrams may
be drawn by hand or computer generated and inserted. Include the CCP’s for your product on the flow chart.
Remember to VERIFY the process by reviewing the flow you describe during actual processing. A CCP is a
point, step or procedure at which controls are applied to prevent, reduce or eliminated a hazard that will not be
controlled in a later step. The following questions my help determine the CCP. Remember not all foods will
have the same flow process.
1. Is the identified hazard likely to occur?
2. Are there preventive measures for each hazard?
3. Is this the last point in which control can be applied to prevent, reduce or eliminate the hazards?

must be equal to or greater then Idaho Food Code requirements. FDA requirements if applicable. You may
add additional operating procedures in this section. Example: Sanitation procedures, thermometer calibration).

LOG SHEETS- RECORD KEEPING


Attach or insert copies of all blank log sheets necessary to implement your HACCP plan. You may combine
elements together. The fewer log sheets the easier it is to successfully implement the HACCP plan. Some
examples included on the following pages are:.
▪ HACCP Training Log
▪ Food Scale Accuracy Testing Log
▪ pH Testing Log
▪ Thermometer/Thermocouple Accuracy Testing Log
▪ Batch Record
▪ Cold Storage Log
▪ Other logs specific to your HACCP processes. Example: Gluten Free Flour (letter of verification or
validation of source)
These records are to be maintained by a designated employee, PIC or manager on duty to demonstrate that the
HACCP plan is properly operated and managed. The records must be readily available for review. Records
must be maintained for a minimum of 2-years or 6 months past the shelf life whichever comes first.

HACCP TRAINING LOG


The designated employee must be trained before conducting HACCP processes. Record training and any
retraining on this log. Trainer must verify this log when training/ retraining is completed. Example: Feel free to
create your own log.

THERMOMETER OR DATA LOGGER LOG


Example
Thermometers must be tested and calibrated as needed. Accuracy of the thermometer(s) data loggers must be
accurate to within 2F. It is recommended to check for accuracy at least once weekly. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for calibration and accuracy checks. Typically, ice slurry for thermometers used to check foods
stored at 41F or less or boiling water bath for thermometers used for hot foods. Remember to consider the
elevation of your location, as most establishments are not at 212F (sea level). To aid employees you may insert
the target temperature. A log in needed for each Thermometer.
