What it does
The DAIRY PRIDE Act would prohibit the use of dairy product names (such as "milk," "yogurt," or "cheese") on plant-based or non-dairy alternatives unless those products do not meet the federal definition of a dairy product, which requires being derived from the lacteal secretion of hooved mammals. The bill amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to enforce this standard, requiring the Secretary of Health and Human Services to issue guidance within 180 days and report to Congress on enforcement actions within two years. It affects food manufacturers and sellers of non-dairy alternatives by restricting labeling that could mislead consumers into believing such products are dairy-based.
