RFK JR. TO FACE OFF WITH BIG FOOD EXECUTIVES
The new HHS secretary is meeting top food industry leaders Monday—the same companies he’s accused of making Americans sick with additives and sugar.
The meeting, pushed by the White House, comes as the food industry warns that Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again agenda could drive up costs and lead to price hikes.
Meanwhile, lobbyists are scrambling to defend processed foods as safe and necessary.
With no set agenda, industry leaders worry they’ll be pressured into concessions that could reshape FDA regulations—and their bottom lines.
Ahead of the meeting, Kennedy visited AG Pam Bondi at DOJ, where he was struck to find his father’s portrait as the only one in her office.

I am directing the FDA commissioner to start the process of changing the rules to eliminate the self-affirmed GRAS pathway for new ingredients. I am also calling on the @US_FDA and @NIH continue to conduct and improve post-market assessments of GRAS chemicals currently in our food so we can rapidly identify the compounds that are making Americans so sick, and so that American consumers and regulators can make informed decisions. This is an important step in our pursuit to Make America Healthy Again.
YES. As the parent of a kid with a sensitivity to artificial dyes (he goes psycho), I would LOVE if all artificial dyes were banned. They're terrible for you and there are natural alternatives.
Red 3 for example. Thankfully banned
This is absolutely HUGE!
RFK Jr Announces Operations Stork Speed!
The goal of operation Stork Speed is make infant formula safer, emphasizing the FDA’s full authority to ensure formula products are free from contaminants like heavy metals, including harmful chemicals.
This initiative also Responds to past shortages (e.g., 2022 crisis), aiming to boost safety and supply.
MY THOUGHTS:
This is what we voted for…
I cannot for the life of me ever understand why these dangerous chemicals were put in there in the first place.
We imported formula from Europe because of tighter restrictions on ingredients for our second child once he transitioned from nursing. No formula for our first. Another good initiative.
I am completely on board with safer food supply, I would like to see some requirements for food marketing. There is some ridiculous stuff allowed in America.
Can't wait to see the lib tears from crying about the employees who are subject to layoffs from companies who produce risky additives.
So being upset about employees for a company losing their jobs is bad?
Explain how the typical hourly employee decides what the company is going to make and sell?
I don't laugh at people losing their jobs. I laugh at idiots who don't have enough common sense to know that a company who is producing a product that is damaging the health of millions of people trumps some people having to look for new jobs. If it was Biden who did it, they would be all for protecting the health of millions at the expense of job turnover. The party of TDS, EMDS, and no common sense.
