…about the labeling on processed fruit? Like what's the difference between 'jam' and 'jam-type spread' or 'fruit spread'? That one has bothered me for a while, so I emailed CFIA and asked them. Here is their reply:
See http://laws.justice.gc.ca./en/F-27/C.R.C.-c.870/123984.html#rid-124083. Jams have compositional standards specified in the Food and Drug Regulations (Section B.11.201) while jam type spreads or fruit spreads may have lower fruit levels or blended ingredients.
