A5084

Requires label or indication of food that contains animal cell-cultivated product.

Introduced·5/14/26

New Jersey A5084 mandates labeling for packaged and served food containing cell-cultivated animal products.

New Jersey A5084 requires that packaged food products containing cell-cultivated animal tissue be labeled on the principal display panel. The label must be clear, conspicuous, and not deceptively similar to labels of non-cell-cultivated products. Food service businesses must also indicate if a product contains cell-cultivated food. The bill defines "cell-cultivated food" as cultured animal tissue produced from in vitro animal cell cultures. The Department of Health, in consultation with the Department of Agriculture, will establish standards for these labels and notifications.
