Relating to the labeling of alternative protein food products.
In committee upon adjournment.
Summary
The bill updates Oregon's food labeling statutes to define new categories of alternative‑protein products—such as cultivated‑protein, insect‑protein and plant‑protein foods—and to clarify what counts as an “identifying meat term” or “identifying egg term” on a label. It applies to producers, distributors and retailers of these foods, requiring that any claim about meat or egg content be clearly shown on the product’s label. The goal is to give consumers clearer, more accurate information about novel protein products.
