AR 134 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Urges FDA to prohibit labeling of non-dairy products as milk.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution urges the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to stop companies from labeling plant-based products as "milk." The bill argues that the FDA's current definition of milk applies only to dairy from cows, goats, sheep, or other mammals, making non-dairy alternatives mislabeled. It requests that the FDA investigate and take action against manufacturers using the term "milk" for products that do not meet this definition. The resolution aims to prevent consumer confusion and protect dairy farmers by enforcing existing federal regulations.
