Sweetened Coarse Peanut Flour is a tan-colored, granular product said to be composed of 91.5 percent "coarse peanut flour 36" and 8.5 percent cane or beet sugar. The former ingredient is substance prepared by grinding the material remaining after the partial extraction of oil from roasted peanuts. Samples of the peanut flour and sweetened flour were submitted with your letter, and analyzed by the U.S. Customs laboratory. Analysis found over 98 percent of the unsweetened flour capable of passing through a woven metal wire cloth sieve with an aperture of 1.25 millimeters, and contained 6 percent sucrose, which you state is naturally occurring. Analysis of the Sweetened Coarse Peanut Flour found over 96 percent capable of passing through the sieve, and it contained 10.7 percent sucrose. Sweetened Coarse Peanut Flour will be imported in 50 and 100-pound bags, 500-pound drums, and 2000-pound bulk bags, and used as an ingredient in the production of reduced fat peanut butter, cookies, candies, and confectionery products. The applicable tariff provision for the Sweetened Coarse Peanut Flour will be 1901.90.9095, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (HTSUSA), which provides for food preparations of flour, meal, starch or malt extract...other... other...other.
