Other prepared or preserved meat, meat offal, blood or insects

Heading 1602 covers meat, meat offal, blood and insects that have been prepared or preserved, such as canned, cooked, cured or made into prepared meals.

Each of those groups is then divided by form, for example prepared meals, airtight containers, container size, and whether cereals or vegetables are present.
