PACKAGES AND LABELING
(Cite as: 9 V.S.A. § 2675)
-
§ 2675. Advertising packages for sale
Whenever a commodity in package form is advertised in any manner and the retail price
of the package is stated in the advertisement, there shall be closely and conspicuously
associated with that statement of price a declaration of the basic quantity of contents
of the package as is required by law or regulation to appear on the package. When
fruit packaged, graded by the packer, and sold by count is advertised, the advertisement
must state the size. In connection with the declaration required under this section,
there shall be declared neither the qualifying term “when packed” nor any other words
of similar import, nor any term qualifying a unit of weight, measure, or count, for
example, “jumbo,” “giant,” “full,” and the like, that tends to exaggerate the amount
of commodity in the package. (Added 1967, No. 102, § 22, eff. April 14, 1967; amended 1971, No. 69, § 6, eff. April 15, 1971.)
