The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify that a Child Nutrition (CN) Label copied with a marking referred to as a “watermark” is acceptable documentation for an Administrative Review. A CN label with a watermark is used when the CN logo and contribution statement are used on product information other than the actual product carton and is presented as a separate document. Manufacturers may provide schools with a CN label with a watermark during the bidding process. (Original CN labels on product cartons will not have a watermark.)
