Noosheen Hashemi(@HashemiNoosheen):Two enormous food policy wins from @SecKennedy in a single announcement. First, he's closing the GRAS loophole. For decades, food companies have quietly declared their own chemicals "generally recognized as safe" without ever telling the FDA. That era is ending. Second, he and Secretary @BrookeRollins just submitted the first ever federal definition of ultra-processed food. Once that definition is finalized, everything downstream from it changes. Labeling, school lunches, hospital food, nutrition education

Two enormous food policy wins from @SecKennedy in a single announcement. First, he's closing the GRAS loophole.

Second, he and Secretary @BrookeRollins just submitted the first ever federal definition of ultra-processed food. Once that definition is finalized, everything downstream from it changes. Labeling, school lunches, hospital food, nutrition education - you name it!
