Michigan just switched to cafe-free only at the start of a year due to a new law going into effect. Prices were increased around the holidays as retailers preemptively switched their stock.

Might not be well defined but I’m sure it’s defined enough to be law.

Right - here's the summary of the changes: https://www.michigan.gov/mdard/-/media/Project/Websites/mdar...

And the specific section of the law defining 'cage free' for Michigan:

There may be some flexibility in consumers' understanding of the terms, but of course the legislature has actual rules.
