Requires retail food establishments to provide disclosures for certain caffeinated beverages.
This New Jersey bill requires retail food establishments to clearly label any beverage containing 80 milligrams or more of caffeine per serving as "High caffeine" on all menus, including digital screens and drive-through boards. The law applies to both permanent and temporary menu items and mandates that the warning be placed directly next to the drink's name. If a business fails to comply, it faces fines ranging from $200 to $1,000 depending on whether it is a first or subsequent offense. Additionally, the bill prevents local governments from creating their own conflicting rules regarding these specific caffeine disclosures.
