(1) Whenever a grader determines that any milk, cream, dairy product or fluid milk is unlawful, the grader shall immediately affix a condemnation tag to the milk, cream, dairy product or fluid milk container. Condemnation tags shall be in a form prescribed by the State Department of Agriculture. The grader shall also thoroughly mix sufficient harmless red coloring matter with the condemned milk, cream, dairy product or fluid milk to prevent the milk, cream, dairy product or fluid milk from being sold, offered or exposed for sale for human consumption.

(2) As used in this section, the term “unlawful” means:

(a) Milk, cream, fluid milk or dairy product that contains dirt, filth, oil or other foreign matter that may render the milk, cream, fluid milk or dairy product, or dairy products derived from them, unfit for human consumption.
