According to 15 USCS § 2052 (5) [Title 15. Commerce and Trade; Chapter 47.

(E) any article which, if sold by the manufacturer, producer, or importer, would be subject to the tax imposed by section 4181 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 [1986] [26 USCS § 4181] (determined without regard to any exemptions from such tax provided by section 4182 or 4221 [26 USCS §§ 4182 or 4221], or any other provision of such Code), or any component of any such article,

[46 USCS §§ 4301 et seq.]; vessels, and appurtenances to vessels (other than such boats), which could be subjected to safety regulation under title 52 of the Revised Statutes or other marine safety statutes administered by the department in which the Coast Guard is operating; and equipment (including associated equipment, as defined in section 3(8) of the Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971) [46 USCS § 2101(1)] to the extent that a risk of injury associated with the use of such equipment on boats or vessels could be eliminated or reduced by actions taken under any statute referred to in this subparagraph,

(I) food. The term "food", as used in this subparagraph means all "food", as defined in section 201(f) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act [21 USCS § 321(f)], including poultry and poultry products (as defined in sections 4(e) and (f) of the Poultry Products Inspection Act) [21 USCS § 453(e) and (f)], meat, meat food products (as defined in section 1(j) of the Federal Meat Inspection Act) [21 USCS § 601(j)], and eggs and egg products (as defined in section 4 of the Egg Products Inspection Act) [21 USCS § 1033].

Such term does not include such a device which is permanently fixed to a site. Except for the regulation under this Act or the Federal Hazardous Substances Act [15 USCS §§ 1261 et seq.] of fireworks devices or any substance intended for use as a component of any such device, the Commission shall have no authority under the functions transferred pursuant to section 30 of this Act [15 USCS § 2079] to regulate any product or article described in subparagraph (E) of this paragraph or described, without regard to quantity, in section 845(a)(5) of title 18, United States Code.
