§2799.6. Limitation of liability for damages from long-term consumption of food and nonalcoholic beverages
A. Any manufacturer, distributor, or seller of a food or nonalcoholic beverage intended for human consumption shall not be subject to civil liability for personal injury or wrongful death based on an individual's consumption of food or nonalcoholic beverages in cases where liability is premised upon the individual's weight gain, obesity, or a health condition related to weight gain or obesity and resulting from his long-term consumption of a food or nonalcoholic beverage.
B. For purposes of this Section, the term "long-term consumption" shall mean the cumulative effect of the consumption of food or nonalcoholic beverages, and not the effect of a single instance of consumption.
