Answer

The answer is (*).

Explanation
Option (*): I don't think any of these laws conflict.

This option suggests that none of the state laws provided conflict with the NYC law regarding the sale of sugary drinks in containers larger than 16 ounces. Let's analyze each state law to confirm this.

Option 1: State law 34.3.8

"Packaged foods derived (e.g., through chemical, biochemical, mechanical, fermentation or bioengineering processes) from a major food allergen as defined in Sec. 34.1.18, must be properly labeled."

  • This law pertains to the labeling of packaged foods derived from major food allergens. It does not address the size of containers for sugary drinks, so there is no conflict with the NYC law.
Option 2: State law 34.1.12

"Packaged foods must be properly labeled with basic nutrition facts as defined in Sec. 34.1.12."

  • This law requires packaged foods to be labeled with basic nutrition facts. Again, this does not relate to the size of containers for sugary drinks, so there is no conflict with the NYC law.
Option 3: State law 34.4.7

"Food service establishments shall be subject to biannual food safety inspections."

  • This law mandates biannual food safety inspections for food service establishments. It does not address the size of containers for sugary drinks, so there is no conflict with the NYC law.

Since none of the state laws provided conflict with the NYC law regarding the sale of sugary drinks in containers larger than 16 ounces, the correct answer is that there is no conflict.
