§ 18756 Adulterated Livestock Containers

This law says a livestock or poultry product is considered unsafe if its packaging contains any poisonous or harmful substance that could make the product's contents dangerous to health.

Key Takeaways

•If a container has poisonous or harmful substances, the product is unsafe.
•The danger must be able to make the product's contents injurious to health.
•Even a small amount of such substance in the container makes the product adulterated.

Example

A farmer stores chicken feed in a container that has traces of a toxic chemical, and the feed is later sold to a family for their chickens.

Because the container has a poisonous substance that could make the feed harmful, the product is adulterated under this law, and selling it could put people's health at risk.

A livestock or poultry product is adulterated if its container is composed, in whole or in part, of any poisonous or deleterious substance which may render the contents of the livestock or poultry product injurious to health. (Repealed and added by Stats. 1970, Ch. 1385.)
