Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would treat a food as misbranded under federal food law if it uses an egg or egg product name, is meant to substitute for eggs, and is not actually an egg or egg product. It defines an egg as the reproductive output of poultry birds, including whites or yolks that were at some point inside a calcium-based shell. Foods that are only shaped like an egg could still use the word "egg" if they are not sold as an egg substitute. The Food and Drug Administration would have to issue draft guidance within 180 days and final guidance within 1 year, cancel any older egg guidance that conflicts with the bill, and report to Congress on enforcement within 2 years.
