    The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), Federal Correctional Institution in Texarkana, Texas, outlines mandatory compliance requirements for delivered items, ensuring they meet all applicable Federal, State, and local regulations. Specifically, items must adhere to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act and the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act. Products containing known allergens, such as wheat, fish, milk, soy, tree nuts, eggs, peanuts, shellfish, and sesame, must comply with the FD&C Act's allergen labeling requirements. Non-compliance with National Menu Specifications will lead to disqualification. While no specification substitutions are allowed, products from foreign countries distributed in the U.S. or Puerto Rico are acceptable unless explicitly stated otherwise. The Food Service Administrator (FSA) determines which specification options are put out to bid, and the NFSA/Chief Dietitian makes the final decision on product compliance. Fried items may be baked at the institution's discretion.
