Newly gazetted Regulation. 2410 of 26 August 2022 - Certain Raw Processed Meat Products are specifically scoped with 13 product classes. These classes set the compositional and labelling requirements needed for selling certain raw processed meat products. In an increasingly conscious marketplace, commitment to quality, enabled by adherence to legislation, will set businesses and industry stakeholders apart, giving them an edge in winning consumer trust and loyalty.

🚨 BREAKING: Due to concerns about harms to human health, #FDA has proposed to revoke the regulation that authorizes the use of brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food. The agency also announced its intent to review three other possibly toxic, FDA-regulated food additives that were recently banned in the state of California, and announced that a decision about #RedDye3 is forthcoming. 👉 MORE: https://brnw.ch/21wE67I #foodsafety #foodindustry #foodandbeverageindustry #foodadditives #foodlaw

Have you ever considered what constitutes an Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)? 🍔🌭🌮🌯🍕🍟🧇🍪🍩🧁🍦🍨🍧🍭🍬 This is the definition: “UPFs are formulations of ingredients, mostly of exclusive industrial use, made by a series of industrial processes, many requiring sophisticated equipment and technology. These include the fractioning of whole foods into substances and the chemical modification of the latter”. 🤢 Are you horrified yet? #UPF #cheapfoodstuffs #expensiveonyourhealth

The recent signing of the bill by California Governor Gavin Newsom to ban certain chemical food additives, including Red Dye 3, is indeed a significant step towards enhancing food safety. However, this action should have been taken much earlier, given the potential health risks associated with these additives. Red Dye 3, in particular, has raised concerns due to its carcinogenic effects in animal studies. Although the impact on humans is still under examination, the fact that it has been linked to cancer in animals is troubling. I do believe that regulatory agencies should have been more proactive in addressing the potential risks posed by this additive. The ban on Red Dye 3 and other problematic additives is undoubtedly a positive development, and it reflects the growing awareness and concerns of consumer advocacy groups regarding food safety. It's essential to prioritize the health and well-being of the population by rigorously examining the safety of food additives, and this new law is a significant step in that direction.
