Texas passes a new law that requires warning labels for 40+ additives and mandates every public high school to offer a nutrition elective The labels will have to say this product “contains ingredients “not recommended for human consumption” in other countries” and applies “to food product labels developed or copyrighted on or after Jan. 1, 2027” https://www.fooddive.com/news/texas-law-food-warning-label-ingredients-additives/751496/ https://legiscan.com/TX/text/SB25/id/3247967

Big claps from me I know some way some how people will get upset about this and we know how I feel about fake food, etc BUT at the very least I think labels and nutrition give people the information and then they can choose what to do with it

This is a difficult one I think when you go too broad people become desensitized CA has this carcinogen label that is similar and people tune it out — will be interesting to see if this happens here too

I had read or heard somewhere, truly can't recall where, that the brutal images they put on cigarettes in other countries actually have zero effect on people buying... so if that's true then unfortunately words on a box will go ignored. I do hope that's not the case at least to start. I hope people who just don't know take notice and maybe rethink or just consider what they're consuming
