Sterilized milk shall be milk that has been
heated without concentration or appreciable
loss of volume to a temperature of at least
100°C for a length of time sufficient to kill
all the organisms present.
No manufacturer shall sell any cheese that
is not made from a pasteurized source if it
has been cut into smaller portions, unless
a) it has been duly stored, or b) each por-
tion of cut cheese is marked, branded or
labelled with the date of the beginning of
the manufacturing process. ["Stored" ac-
cording to B.08.030 means to have been
kept or held at a temperature of 2°C or
more for a period of 60 days or more from
the date of the beginning of the manufac-
turing process. The purpose is to allow for
the die-off of pathogens if present.]
Subject to B.08.044 item (2), no person
shall sell cheese, including cheese curd,
that is not made from a pasteurized source
unless it has been stored (see definition of
"stored" immediately above).
Cheese, including cheese curd, that is not
made from a pasteurized source may be
used as an ingredient in any food providing
such food is manufactured or processed so
as to pasteurize the cheese in the manner
described in the definition "pasteurized
source." ["Pasteurized source" according
to B.08.030 means milk, skim milk,
cream, reconstituted milk powder, reconsti-
tuted skim milk powder or any combina-
tion thereof that has been pasteurized by
being held at a temperature of not less than
61.6°C for a period of not less than 30
minutes, or for a time and temperature that
is equivalent thereto in phosphatase de-
struction as determined by the official
method. ]

No person shall sell a meat, meat by-prod-

meat by-product or preparation thereof,
packed in a hermetically sealed container
