Require food service operations to denote certain allergens
This bill requires food service operations to clearly mark menu items that contain specific allergens, including milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soybeans. The law directly affects restaurants, cafeterias, and other establishments that serve food by mandating that they list these ingredients on their menus or menu boards. By making this information readily available, the measure aims to help customers with dietary restrictions identify safe food options. This change applies to all food service businesses operating within the jurisdiction where the bill is enacted.
