This bill makes it illegal to falsely advertise or sell food products as meat or poultry when they don't meet South Dakota's legal definitions of those products—for example, selling plant-based products labeled as "meat" when they don't qualify. Violators face Class 2 misdemeanor charges. The law targets deceptive marketing practices to protect consumers from being misled about what they're buying.
