When the liquid portion of the packing media provided for in paragraphs （a）（3） （i） and （ii） of this section consists of fruit juice（s）, such juice（s） shall be designated in the packing medium as:
（ a ） In the case of a single fruit juice, the name of the juice shall be used in lieu of the word “fruit”；
（ b ） In the case of a combination of two or more fruit juices, the names of the juices in the order of predominance by weight shall either be used in lieu of the word “fruit” in the name of the packing medium, or be declared on the label as specified in paragraph （a）（4）（iii） of this section; and
（ c ） In the case of a single fruit juice or a combination of two or more fruit juices any of which are made from concentrate（s）, the words “from concentrate（s）” shall follow the word “juice（s）” in the name of the packing medium and in the name（s） of such juice（s） when declared as specified in paragraph （a）（4）（iii） of this section.
（iii） Whenever the names of the fruit juices used do not appear in the name of the packing medium as provided in paragraph （a）（4）（ii）（ b ） of this section, such names and the words “from concentrate”， as specified in paragraph （a）（4）（ii）（ c ） of this section, shall appear in an ingredient statement pursuant to the requirements of §101.3（d） of this chapter.
（iv） Label declaration. Each of the ingredients used in the food shall be declared on the label as required by the applicable sections of parts 101 and 130 of this chapter.
（b） Quality. （1） The standard of quality for canned fruit cocktail is as follows:
（i） Not more than 20 percent by weight of the units in the container of peach or pear, or of pineapple if the units thereof are diced, are more than3/4inch in greatest edge dimension, or pass through the meshes of a sieve designated as5/16inch that complies with the specifications for such cloth set forth in the “Official Methods of Analysis of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists,” 13th Ed. （1980）, Table 1, “Nominal Dimensions of Standard Test Sieves （U.S.A. Standard Series）,” under the heading “Definitions of Terms and Explanatory Notes,” which is incorporated by reference. Copies may be obtained from the AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 481 North Frederick Ave., suite 500, Gaithersburg, MD 20877, or may be examined at the National Archives and Records Administration （NARA）. For information on the availability of this material at NARA, call 202–741–6030, or go to: http://www.archives.gov/federal_register/code_of_federal_regulations/ibr_locations.html. If the units of pineapple are in the form of sectors, not more than 20 percent of such sectors in the container fail to conform to the following dimensions: The length of the outside arc is not more than3/4inch but is more than3/8inch; the thickness is not more than1/2inch but is more than5/16inch; the length （measured along the radius from the inside arc to the outside arc） is not more than 11/4inches but is more than3/4inch.
（ii） Not more than 10 percent of the grapes in a container containing 10 grapes or more, and not more than 1 grape in a container containing less than 10 grapes, are cracked to the extent of being severed into two parts or are crushed to the extent that their normal shape is destroyed.
（iii） Not more than 10 percent of the grapes in a container containing 10 grapes or more, and not more than a grape in a container containing less than 10 grapes, have the cap stem attached.
（iv） There is present in the finished canned fruit cocktail not more than 1 square inch of pear peel per each 1 pound of drained weight of units of pear plus the weight of a proportion of the packing medium which is the same proportion as the drained weight of the units of pear bears to the drained weight of the entire contents of the can. Such drained weights shall be determined by the method prescribed in paragraph （c） of this section.
（v） There is present in the finished canned fruit cocktail not more than 1 square inch of peach peel per each 1 pound of drained weight of units of peach plus the weight of a proportion of the packing medium which is the same proportion as the drained weight of units of peach bears to the drained weight of the entire contents of the can. Such drained weights shall be determined by the method prescribed in paragraph （c） of this section.
（vi） Not more than 15 percent of the units of cherry ingredient, and not more than 20 percent of the units of peach, pear, or grape, in the container are blemished with scab, hail injury, scar tissue or other abnormality.
（vii） If the cherry ingredient is artificially colored, the color of not more than 15 percent of the units thereof in a container containing more than six units and of not more than one unit in a container containing six units or less, is other than evenly distributed in the unit or other than uniform with the color of the other units of the cherry ingredient.
（2） If the quality of canned fruit cocktail falls below the standard prescribed in paragraph （b）（1） of this section, the label shall bear the general statement of substandard quality specified in §130.14（a） of this chapter, in the manner and form therein specified.
（c） Fill of container. （1） The standard of fill of container for canned fruit cocktail is a fill such that the total weight of drained fruit is not less than 65 percent of the water capacity of the container, as determined by the general method for water capacity of containers prescribed in §130.12（a） of this chapter. Such total weight of drained fruit is determined by the following method: Tilt the opened container so as to distribute the contents evenly over the meshes of a circular sieve which has been previously weighed. The diameter of the sieve is 8 inches if the quantity of contents of the container is less than 3 pounds, and 12 inches if such quantity is 3 pounds or more. The bottom of the sieve is woven-wire cloth that complies with the specifications for such cloth set forth under “2.38 mm （No. 8）” in Table 1, “Nominal Dimensions of Standard Test Sieves （U.S.A. Standard Series）,” prescribed in paragraph （b）（1）（i） of this section, which is incorporated by reference. The availability of this incorporation by reference is given in paragraph （b）（1）（i） of this section. Without shifting the material on the sieve so incline the sieve as to facilitate drainage. Two minutes from the time drainage begins, weigh the sieve and drained fruit. The weight so found, less the weight of the sieve, shall be considered to be the total weight of drained fruit.
（2） If canned fruit cocktail falls below the standard of fill of container prescribed in paragraph （c）（1） of this section, the label shall bear the general statement of substandard fill specified in §130.14（b） of this chapter, in the manner and form therein prescribed.
