The bill amends the Food Law of Michigan, specifically section 6101, to incorporate modifications to the food code. Key changes include the modification of the non-continuous cooking process for raw animal foods, which now requires an initial heating process of no longer than 60 minutes, followed by specific cooling and storage protocols. Additionally, the language has been updated to replace "prior to" with "before" in several instances, clarifying the timing of cooking and storage requirements.

Furthermore, the bill introduces new provisions regarding the presence of dogs in certain food service establishments. It allows dogs to be present in qualified premises that do not serve food, provided that specific health and safety conditions are met, such as maintaining cleanliness and ensuring that dogs do not come into contact with food surfaces. The bill also outlines the responsibilities of both the establishment and the customer regarding the management of dogs, including leash requirements and restrictions on where dogs can be located within the premises.
