SB 560

Under this bill, no person may sell or offer for sale a food product that contains cultured animal cells or cultured animal tissue derived from cultured animal cells (“lab-grown meat”) unless the food product is labeled with the phrase “lab-grown meat.” The bill also imposes certain labeling requirements for persons selling “lab-grown meat” packaged food products, including the requirements that the packaged food product’s label list all ingredients and bear the phrase “lab-grown meat.” Finally, the bill prohibits the sale or service of “lab-grown meat” food products in a public eating place or at certain state institutions, with certain exceptions.

A person that violates the bill’s prohibition may be subject to a criminal penalty of between $100 and $1,000 per violation or imprisoned for up to one year, or both.
