CELL-CULTIVATED ANIMAL PROTEINS – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding cell-cultivated animal protein labeling, oversight, and penalties.
Signed by Governor on 03/31/26 Session Law Chapter 247 Effective: 07/01/2026
Summary
The bill adds a new chapter to Idaho’s food code that defines cell‑cultivated animal proteins and requires any such product sold in the state to be labeled with terms like “lab‑grown,” “cell‑cultivated,” or “cell‑cultured.” It gives the Idaho Department of Agriculture authority to enforce the rule, conduct inspections, and issue civil fines of up to $500 per violation, though good‑faith errors corrected promptly are exempt. The measure is intended to give consumers transparent information and prevent misleading marketing of lab‑grown meat.
