Food donation liability.

Existing law, with specified exceptions, exempts a food facility that donates any food that is fit for human consumption at the time it was donated to a nonprofit charitable organization or a food bank from liability for any damage or injury resulting from the consumption of the donated food. Existing law also exempts from liability any person who donates any agricultural product, as provided. Existing federal law also contains specified exemptions from liability for the donation of apparently fit grocery products to a nonprofit organization. Existing federal law allows for a tax deduction for charitable contributions of food inventory. This bill would require the California Department of Food and Agriculture and the California Department of Public Health to make information available, as provided, about certain state and federal statutory exemptions from liability for the donation of food to a nonprofit corporation and tax deductions for charitable contributions of food inventory.
