The regulatory scheme was read to permit additives where specifically allowed, and Rule 3.1.12 was treated as expressly listing lactic acid as an acidulant for miscellaneous foods. The expression "miscellaneous foods" was construed broadly, and the absence of lactic acid from a specific appendix entry did not by itself make its use impermissible where the wider regulatory framework and supporting standards indicated otherwise. The text therefore identifies lactic acid as a permissible ingredient within that scheme. en-us Wed, 19 Dec 2012 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 10:26:09 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171903 The Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 and the 2011 Regulations were analysed on whether lactic acid could lawfully be used in sugar boiled confectionery.
