14.1.2 Fruit juices as defined by Directive 2001/112/EC and vegetable juices
EU food category, from Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008, Annex II, Part D.
Under Annex II, an additive may be used only in the foods and under the conditions listed for them. This page shows what is listed for this category. It does not infer anything from broader categories: where Annex II extends a broader category's provisions to its subcategories, it says so in that category's own listing. See the broader category 14.1.
