The Committees for separate types of foodstuff products have the responsibility to develop standards for different types of food or groups of foodstuff products. In order to differentiate them from the Horizontal Committees and to recognize their exclusive responsibility they are often called Vertical Committees. There are 11 vertical committees: Codex Committee on Cocoa products and chocolates, Codex Committee on Sugars, Codex Committee on processed fruit and vegetables, Codex Committee on fats and oils, Codex Committee on meat and animal meat hygiene, Codex Committee on fish and fishery products, Codex Committee on fresh fruit and vegetables, Codex Committee on meat milk and milk products, Codex Committee on natural mineral waters, Codex Committee on vegetable proteins, Codex Committee on cereals, pulses and legumes.
