§ 354 - Marking of containers
§ 354. Marking of containers
Each container containing eggs being sold, exposed, offered or advertised for sale or exchange in this state for human consumption must be plainly and conspicuously marked with the proper designation of the size and quality grades promulgated by the secretary of agriculture, food and markets pursuant to the provisions of chapter 21 of this title. The container of each lot of eggs being sold by a dealer to a retailer must be plainly marked with the dealer's identification and the date of shipment. The size marking requirements of this section shall not prevent a producer from selling eggs of mixed sizes to a dealer, provided that when selling mixed sized eggs, the producer plainly marks each lot "mixed sizes" or "nest run." The size and grade marking requirements of this section shall not prevent any dealer from selling eggs, mixed as to size or quality, or both, to any other dealer, provided that the seller plainly marks each lot of mixed quality "ungraded" and each lot of mixed size "mixed sizes." (Amended 1973, No. 149 (Adj. Sess.), § 4; 2003, No. 42, § 2, eff. May 27, 2003.)
