Seafood labeling; food service establishments may use a clear legend.
SB 2624 requires restaurants and food service establishments in Mississippi to clearly label mixed seafood products (containing both domestic and imported ingredients) using a visible legend instead of listing each item individually. It mandates that imported seafood labels must display the country of origin in font size matching the product name, and exempts products already compliant with federal Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) rules. Grocery stores selling prepackaged seafood must follow federal font size guidelines for COOL labels. Suppliers must maintain records of seafood origin to verify compliance, with violations subject to civil penalties up to $10,000.
