MI HB5704

Changes grammatical structure in the definition of "adulterated" food by replacing "food to which any of the following apply" with "as applied to food" and modifying verb tenses from past tense ("has been") to present tense ("is").

Clarifies definitions related to food additives, pesticide chemicals, and color additives by adjusting punctuation and word choice (e.g., changing semicolons to commas, "any" to "a").

Adds new definition of "third-party food delivery platform" as a business providing delivery services from cottage food operations or food service establishments to consumers.

Revises definitions of "cottage food operation" and "cottage food product" to replace "person" with "individual" and clarifies that cottage food products exclude potentially hazardous foods, canned low-acid fruits, and acidified vegetables.

Bill takes effect only if House Bill No. 5671 of the 101st Legislature is enacted into law.
