Bill No. 2829 aims to regulate the production and sale of cultivated meat in Oklahoma by defining "cultivated meat" as meat produced from cultured animal tissue outside of the animal. The bill makes it unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, hold, offer for sale, or distribute cultivated meat products within the state, with violations resulting in misdemeanor charges. Additionally, food sellers who violate this prohibition may face enforcement actions from the State Department of Health, including the potential suspension or revocation of their licenses.

The bill also grants the State Department of Health the authority to adopt necessary rules for implementation and includes exemptions for governmental entities and institutions of higher education conducting research on cultivated meat. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
