or
    (2) The total solids content is not less than 93.0 percent m/m when 
the reducing sugar content, (dextrose equivalent) expressed as D-

    (b) The name of the food is ``Dried glucose sirup'' or ``Glucose 
sirup solids''. When the food is derived from a specific type of starch, 
the name may alternatively be ``Dried ______ sirup'' or ``______ sirup 
solids'', the blank to be filled in with the name of the starch; for
