Modifies provisions relating to the selling of raw milk, raw milk products, or cream
This bill modifies Missouri's regulations for selling raw milk, raw milk products, and cream. It requires that retail raw milk or cream sold in grocery stores or farmers markets must carry a clear health warning label stating it has not been pasteurized and may contain harmful bacteria. Dairy farms selling these products must also test their herds annually for tuberculosis and brucellosis to ensure they are disease-free. The bill maintains that pasteurized milk and milk products remain the standard for sale to final consumers, restaurants, and grocery stores, with the raw milk exception limited to direct retail sales and final consumer purchases.
