In establishing such standards of enrichment, the commissioner shall conform, insofar as he finds practical, to standards of enrichment promulgated by the secretary of health, education and welfare pursuant to the federal food, drug and cosmetic act, 1 and acts amendatory thereof. Any standard established by the commissioner after public hearing may be amended without hearing, if the amendment substantially conforms to standards promulgated under the federal act.
