Sec. 169.3  Definitions.
 
 
    For the purposes of this part:
    (a) The term vanilla beans means the properly cured and dried fruit 
pods of Vanilla planifolia Andrews and of Vanilla tahitensis Moore.
    (b) The term unit weight of vanilla beans means, in the case of 
vanilla beans containing not more than 25 percent moisture, 13.35 ounces 
of such beans; and, in the case of vanilla beans containing more than 25 
percent moisture, it means the weight of such beans equivalent in 
content of moisture-free vanilla-bean solids to 13.35 ounces of vanilla 
beans containing 25 percent moisture. (For example, one unit weight of 
vanilla beans containing 33.25 percent moisture amounts to 15 ounces.) 
The moisture content of vanilla beans is determined by the method 
prescribed in "Official Methods of Analysis of the Association of 
Official Analytical Chemists," 13th Ed. (1980), sections 7.004 and 
7.005, which is incorporated by reference, except that the
 
[[Page 547]]
 
toluene used is blended with 20 percent by volume of benzene and the 
total distillation time is 4 hours. Copies of the material incorporated 
by reference may be obtained from the Association of Official Analytical 
Chemists International, 481 North Frederick Ave., suite 500, 
Gaithersburg, MD 20877-2504, or may be examined at the Office of the 
Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, 
DC. To prepare samples for analysis, the pods are chopped into pieces 
approximately \1/4\-inch in longest dimension, using care to avoid 
moisture change.
    (c) The term unit of vanilla constituent means the total sapid and 
odorous principles extractable from one unit weight of vanilla beans, as 
defined in paragraph (b) of this section, by an aqueous alcohol solution 
in which the content of ethyl alcohol by volume amounts to not less than 
35 percent.

extract the content of ethyl alcohol is not less than 35 percent by 
volume and the content of vanilla constituent, as defined in 
Sec. 169.3(c), is not less than one unit per gallon. The vanilla 
constituent may be extracted directly from vanilla beans or it may be 
added in the form of concentrated vanilla extract or concentrated 
vanilla flavoring or vanilla flavoring concentrated to the semisolid 
form called vanilla oleo-resin. Vanilla extract may contain one or more 
of the following optional ingredients:
    (1) Glycerin.

vanilla flavoring, the label shall bear the statement "Made from ------
" or "Made in part from ------", the blank being filled in with the 
name or names "vanilla oleoresin", "concentrated vanilla extract", 
or "concentrated vanilla flavoring", as appropriate. If the article 
contains two or more units of vanilla constituent, the name of the food 
shall include the designation "---fold", the blank being filled in 
with the whole number (disregarding fractions) expressing the number of 
units of vanilla constituent per gallon of the article.
    (3) Wherever the name of the food appears on the label so 
conspicuously as to be easily seen under customary conditions of 
purchase, the labeling required by paragraph (b)(2) of this section 
shall immediately and conspicuously precede or follow such name, without 
intervening written, printed, or graphic matter.
