Foods Intended Solely for Children Under Two Years of Age

All formats for children under two years of age may be used only on foods that are promoted and sold solely for children under two years of age. Products that are also marketed to young children or adults are not subject to the special provisions in the regulations that apply to food for children under two years of age. For example, arrowroot cookies that are typically consumed by both young children and children under two years of age are not eligible for the formats described in this section.

This section is not complete on its own. It should be used in conjunction with the Information within the Nutrition Facts Table section and with the specific nutrition labelling regulations pertaining to foods intended solely for children under two years of age found in the Food and Drug Regulations (FDR).
