Letters on such sign shall be bold face capitals at least three inches in height and in contrasting color to the background. No such sign need be displayed if each customer is provided with a menu on which there is stated "PAREVINE SERVED HERE" in bold face capitals as large as those used in listing most food items.

(f) The label on packages of parevine shall, in addition to all other required information, include a complete list of all ingredients in accordance with the provisions of 21 CFR 101.4.
