| (a) This rule relates to Alcoholic Beverage Code §§28.1001
and 32.155.
(b) A "tamper-proof container" means a container that,
once sealed, clearly shows whether it has been opened. The term includes
a closed cup or similar container that is:
(1) placed into a bag that has been sealed with a zip
tie or staple;
(2) sealed with shrink wrap or a similar seal;
(3) sealed with a tamper-evident adhesive tape or seal
having one or more indicators or barriers to entry which, if breached
or missing, can reasonably be expected to provide visible evidence
that tampering has occurred; or
(4) sealed mechanically on-premises with a can seamer.
(c) The following sealing methods, unless used in combination
with a method described in subsection (b) of this section, are not
sufficient to meet the standard for a tamper-proof container:
(1) freezing the beverage, putting a lid on it, and
leaving the straw out of the lid's straw hole; and
(2) sealing with a sticker or adhesive tape that is
not tamper-evident.
(d) The list in subsection (c) of this section is non-exclusive.
