Congress says filled milk is an adulterated food that's harmful to public health, and selling it defrauds the public. It's illegal to make filled milk in a U.S. territory or D.C., or to ship it across state or international lines.

This section makes a declaration and sets a rule about filled milk, which section 61 of this title defines. Congress declares that filled milk is an adulterated article of food — meaning it's treated as impure or unsafe — and that it's injurious to public health. Congress also declares that selling filled milk is a fraud on the public. Because of that, the section makes it unlawful for anyone to manufacture filled milk within any U.S. Territory or possession, or within the District of Columbia. It's also unlawful to ship filled milk, or deliver it for shipment, in interstate commerce (between states) or foreign commerce (to or from other countries).
