"conclusions." .\j.i.j.
Inthefirstplaceithasnotbeenestablishedthatconsiderations
inthefieldofhealthwouldjustifyrulingofthedegreeofextraction,
afealreadytheproposalforbidsthetrade,;ofextractsobtainedby;the
acidhydrolysisprocess .Woteithercouldsuchconsiderations leadto
prohibitionofextractsobtainedfromaquantityofcoffeeinferiorto
1£certainlimit.••r:..^

I
Inthesecond place ithas .notbeen proven that thedegree of |
extraction constitutes acriterion forthequality and .composition that
would permit todistinguish "between various kinds ofextracts .Thedegree \
ofextraction isonly oneamong many ,andoften more important ,factors
that determine thecharacteristics oftheproduct ,which aremoreover
appreciated inasubjective way .Such other factors arefor instance
thevariety andtheorigin ofthegreencoffee ,thecomposition ofthe j
blend ,theroasting ,theextraction technique used ,andthecharacteris - !
tics ofthevjater used intheprocess .Therefore ,different designations |
according tothequantity ofgreaicoffee used ,thisquantity being on |
theonehandinferior ,ontheotherhandequal orsuperior toacertain j
liniit ,would bemisleading -totheconsumer . j
... . . . . ..j
However ,areference tothedegree ofextraction could place the
manufacturers inaconcordant position inthecompetition ,allother
factors being equal ,and sogive totheconsumer anelement ofinformation
suitable todirect hischoice ,taking into account theprice ,between
various coffee extracts alldesignated assuch .But itistechnically
impossible toimpose ,themention ofthedegree ofextraction because
this degree mayvary tosome extent intheproduction process duefor j
instance tothenature ofthecoffee used .Talking into consideration , j
however ,thefact that inmost cases thequantity ofgreen coffee used
toproduce onekgof^extract issuperior to2.3kg,itseems reasonable
toimpose inthelabelling mention of :"processed from less than 2.3kg
ofgreen coffee perkgextract "forproducts forwhich this isthecase .
This solution excludes thepossibility ofusing misleading designations
other than "ooffee extract "orthelike ,andobliges themanufacturer j
only tomention acharacteristic theproduct really possesses .Therefore i
thissolution appears intheproposal ., ;j
[
Further theproposal provides forrules ,inconsumers' interest ,
concerning incorporation ofadditives ,weight andlabelling .Ithas j
been elaborated during aperiod ofnearly twoyears ,with consultation j
^diffr-rent ,of experts i
andoftheconsumers *andtrade organizations andofthetrade unions .In
