Nutritional information. All other formats are variations of this format and can
only be used in special applications. See 21 CFR part 101.9(d). The Vertical
Standard format includes all of the required fields and those voluntary fields that
do not have a blank value. This format also has a footnote that includes the
recommended Daily Value for a 2000 and 2500 calorie diet.

Nutrition Fields chart will not print in the main Nutrition Facts table when they
are present in insignificant amounts, but will print in the footnote. This footnote
lists all of the required fields that are present in insignificant amounts following
the words "Not a significant source of . . ." .
