That already exists in California, and is entirely unrelated the new legislation. The law is simply that you cant use various labels like "enjoy by" or "Best by" and instead, all non-safety dates must use the exact words "best if used by". 82001. (a) On and after January 1, 2025, a food manufacturer, processor, or retailer responsible for the labeling of food items for human consumption that chooses, or is otherwise required by law, to display a date label to communicate a quality or safety date on a food item manufactured on or after January 1, 2025, shall use one of the following uniform terms on the date label: (1) “BEST if Used by” or “BEST if Used or Frozen by” to indicate the quality date of the food item. (2) “USE by” or “USE by or Freeze by” to indicate the safety date of the food item. (3) “BB” to indicate the quality date of the food item if the food item is too small to include the uniform term described in paragraph (1). (4) “UB” to indicate the safety date of the food item if the food item is too small to include the uniform term described in paragraph (2). https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB660/id/2837671 https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB660/id/2837671
