Prohibits the manufacture, sale, and distribution of cultivated meat

HB 2617 prohibits the manufacture, sale, and distribution of cultivated meat within the state. It defines "cultivated meat" as any edible product made by growing animal cells outside a living animal (e.g., lab-grown beef or chicken) and explicitly bans these products. The bill directly affects food producers, restaurants, and retailers planning to sell such products. Violations carry penalties: a class C misdemeanor for the first offense and a class A misdemeanor for repeat violations, with each day of violation treated as a separate offense.
