South Dakota is clarifying its food labeling rules to prohibit misleading labels on cell-cultured protein products (lab-grown meat alternatives). The bill updates the existing definition of "misbranded" food to ensure these products are labeled truthfully and not marketed under false or deceptive names. This protects consumers by requiring clear identification of what they're actually buying.
