The following notable changes were made to support the December 2017 Publication. Work Request 17-000030 – Dairy Products and Fats A large work effort was completed for the December 2017 publication. The GPC SMG was surveyed as to the approach to manage this request. After discussion from the survey results, the main path this request took was to examine the current bricks for dairy and fat products and modify them to separate the substitute from the non- substitute. For example, Brick 10000026 – Milk/Milk Substitutes (Perishable) was modified to be just Milk (Perishable) and a new brick was created called Milk Substitutes (Perishable). The main difference in these bricks is the source of the product. The substitutes are non-animal based sourced whereas the non-substitutes bricks are animal based. For example, see how the milk bricks were named before and after.

Before Change

• Milk/Milk Substitutes (Perishable) • Milk/Milk Substitutes (Shelf Stable) • Milk/Milk Substitutes (Frozen)

After Change

• Milk (Perishable) • Milk (Shelf Stable) • Milk (Frozen) • Milk Substitutes (Frozen) • Milk Substitutes (Perishable) • Milk Substitutes (Shelf Stable)
