Maddy summaryH 3407 requires food manufacturers, processors, and retailers in South Carolina to use standardized date labels on most packaged foods sold after June 30, 2026. It mandates specific terms like "BEST if Used by" for quality dates and "USE by" for safety dates, while banning the phrase "sell by." The law exempts infant formula, eggs, beer, and certain products like wine (which can use production dates) and bulk milk shipments. Grocery stores must display these standardized labels on prepared foods, but may still use "packed on" labels alongside compliant date markings. The bill aims to reduce consumer confusion about food dates without requiring date labeling on all products.
