NJ A6072

Retail food establishments in New Jersey must display a "High caffeine" warning or approved symbol next to any beverage containing 80 milligrams or more of caffeine per serving on all menus, including drive-through menu boards

The disclosure requirement applies to both standard and temporary menu items (items appearing for less than 60 total days per year)

Violations carry penalties of $200-$500 for first offense and $500-$1,000 for subsequent offenses, enforced by the Department of Health or local health boards

The law preempts all local ordinances on high-caffeine beverage disclosures, making it a matter of statewide concern with uniform regulation

The law takes effect 10 months after enactment and creates no private right of action against establishments for non-compliance
