Question:
|
What is the tolerance for extraneous material in semi-processed shrimp
destined for further processing? |
|
Answer:
|
A unit will be considered defective if:
-
4 or more pieces of seaweed (singly or in combination) which
exceed 25 mm in total length are found in a 1 kg sample unit. This tolerance is
to be prorated for sample-unit sizes other than 1 kg; or
-
a sample unit contains 5% or more, by weight, of juvenile fish
or shellfish.
