Food labels would clearly mark "lab-created butter" for shoppers.
This bill would make sure certain butter-like products made in a lab are clearly labeled. Shoppers would see "lab-created butter" on these products, helping them know what they are buying. This affects food makers and people who buy butter or butter-like products sold as butter.
Today, products made with lab-created milkfat that are marketed as butter and don't meet the 1923 butter standard don't have a specific federal labeling requirement. If this bill passes, these products would need to clearly state "lab-created butter" or "contains lab-created butter" on their labels.
