A far-reaching Texas bill signed by Gov. Greg Abbott (R) on Sunday will force manufacturers of processed foods and drinks to put warning labels on any products containing 44 different food additives or dyes believed to be toxic to human health.
While the law, which aligns with the “Make America Healthy Again” goals of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is limited to Texas, the state’s hefty population of more than 31 million gives it significant sway in the food industry.
“It’s official! Make Texas Healthy Again has been signed!” state Sen. Lois Kolkhorst (R) posted Sunday night on the social platform X, adding that the measure would ensure “consumers are informed and can make better choices for their families.”
