Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 18781 of the Food and Agricultural Code, relating to agriculture.

AI Summary

This bill proposes a minor technical amendment to Section 18781 of the California Food and Agricultural Code regarding the misbranding of livestock and poultry products. Specifically, the bill makes a small grammatical change to subsection (c), which addresses product labeling for imitation foods, by adding a comma after the word "imitation" when requiring products to label themselves as imitating another food. The existing law already specifies that when a product is an imitation of another food, it must clearly label itself with the word "imitation" followed by the name of the food being imitated. The bill does not substantively change the meaning or intent of the existing law, but rather appears to be a technical correction to punctuation. This type of non-substantive amendment is common in legislative practice to improve clarity or correct minor drafting issues in existing statutes.
