In Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, parts 100 to 169, 
revised as of April 1, 2016, on page 50, Sec.  101.10 is revised to 
read as follows:.


 Sec.  101.10  Nutrition labeling of restaurant foods whose labels or 
labeling bear nutrient content claims or health claims.

    Nutrition labeling in accordance with Sec.  101.9 shall be provided 
upon request for any restaurant food or meal for which a nutrient 
content claim (as defined in Sec.  101.13 or in subpart D of this part) 
or a health claim (as defined in Sec.  101.14 and permitted by a 
regulation in subpart E of this part) is made, except that information 
on the nutrient amounts that are the basis for the claim (e.g., ``low 
fat, this meal provides less than 10 grams of fat'') may serve as the 
functional equivalent of complete nutrition information as described in 
Sec.  101.9. For the purposes of this section, restaurant food includes 
two categories of food. It includes food which is served in restaurants 
or other establishments in which food is served for immediate human 
consumption or which is sold for sale or use in such establishments. It 
also includes food which is processed and prepared primarily in a 
retail establishment, which is ready for human consumption, which is of 
the type described in the previous sentence, and which is offered for 
sale to consumers but not for immediate human consumption in such 
establishment and which is not offered for sale outside such 
establishment. For standard menu items that are offered for sale in 
covered establishments (as defined in Sec.  101.11(a)), the information 
in the written nutrition information required by Sec.  
101.11(b)(2)(ii)(A) will serve to meet the requirements of this 
section. Nutrient levels may be determined by nutrient databases, 
cookbooks, or analyses or by other reasonable bases that provide 
assurance that the food or meal meets the nutrient requirements for the 
claim. Presentation of nutrition labeling may be in various forms, 
including those provided in Sec.  101.45 and other reasonable means.
