Complete·3/31/26

Idaho S1270 establishes labeling requirements for cell-cultivated animal proteins and outlines regulatory oversight and penalties.

Idaho S1270 adds provisions to Idaho law regarding the labeling of alternative animal proteins, such as lab-grown meat. The bill mandates that any alternative animal protein sold in Idaho must be labeled with terms like "lab-grown protein" or "cell-cultivated protein." These labels must be prominent and legible, appearing on the principal display panel of the packaging. Restaurants and vendors must also provide similar labeling on menus. The Idaho Department of Agriculture is tasked with enforcing these labeling requirements through rulemaking, inspections, and investigations.
