The bill amends the Food Law of Michigan to enhance food safety regulations and update definitions related to cottage food operations. Key changes include the clarification of terms such as "adulterated," "cottage food operation," and "consumer," with new legal language inserted to improve understanding and compliance. The definition of "adulterated" now specifies conditions that render food unsafe, such as the presence of poisonous substances and unsanitary production conditions. Additionally, the bill introduces the term "third-party food delivery platform" to address contemporary food distribution methods.

The legislation also outlines specific requirements for cottage food operations, including the necessity for products to be prepackaged and properly labeled with essential information such as the business name, product name, ingredients, net weight, allergen information, and a statement indicating that the product was made in a home kitchen not inspected by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development. The annual gross sales cap for cottage food operations is increased from $25,000 to $50,000, with provisions for higher limits for products sold at $250 or more per unit. A new optional registration program administered by the MSU Product Center allows cottage food operations to obtain a unique identification number for labeling purposes. The bill also permits the sale of cottage food products via the internet or mail order, provided there is prior consumer interaction, and establishes that gross sales limits will be adjusted annually for inflation.
