is fabricated from two or more ingredients.
    (b) A qualification of the name of the food, or the name of each 
ingredient thereof in case the food is fabricated from two or more 
ingredients, to reveal clearly the specific plant or animal that is the 
source of such food or of such ingredient, if such food or such 
ingredient consists in whole or in part of plant or animal matter and 
such name does not reveal clearly the specific plant or animal that is 
such a source.
    (c) An informative statement of the nature and effect of any 
treatment or processing of the food or any ingredient thereof, if the 
changed allergenic property results from such treatment or processing.
