This bill amends Minnesota Statutes to modify the regulations surrounding edible cannabinoid products and lower-potency hemp edibles, particularly in relation to their THC content when intended for consumption as beverages. Specifically, it establishes that an edible cannabinoid product must not exceed five milligrams of delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) per serving, with the exception that products intended for consumption as beverages may contain up to ten milligrams of THC per serving. Additionally, the total THC limit for a package of edible cannabinoid products is set at 50 milligrams, while beverage containers are limited to two servings.

The bill also outlines various requirements for the packaging and labeling of these products to ensure safety and prevent appeal to children. For instance, it mandates that edible cannabinoid products must be prepackaged in child-resistant, tamper-evident, and opaque containers, with specific labeling requirements that include serving size, cannabinoid profile, and allergen information. Furthermore, it prohibits certain misleading packaging practices and restricts the inclusion of specific cannabinoids, ensuring that only approved substances are used in these products.
