Which code does this activity belong in?
Spice and Extract Manufacturing covers establishments that produce spices, seasonings, flavoring extracts, natural food colorings, and dry mix food preparations like salad dressing mixes and gravy mixes. The boundary with Mayonnaise, Dressing, and Other Prepared Sauce Manufacturing lies in the form of the final product: spice manufacturers produce dry ingredients and mixes, while prepared sauce manufacturers produce finished liquid or semi-liquid condiments and sauces ready for consumption or use without further mixing by the consumer.
