Regards boneless meat products
HB 709 amends existing laws to strengthen labeling requirements for boneless meat products sold in the state. The bill mandates that these products must be clearly labeled as "boneless" and prohibits selling meat that contains bones under that specific name. Additionally, the legislation updates general labeling rules to ensure accurate ingredient lists, proper quantity statements, and clear disclosure of artificial additives. By repealing an older section, this measure aims to prevent consumer deception and ensure that meat products meet established standards for identity and quality.
