On Sunday, Governor Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 25, or as many are calling it 'Make Texas Healthy Again' Bill. The big part of this bill is a list of 44 additives or dyes that are already in several processed foods on store shelves. This bill states that if one of those 44 items are in your food after 2027, the package must state “WARNING: This product contains an ingredient that is not recommended for human consumption"

Please note that if these companies remove those additives or dyes from their food by the end of 2027, they can be on store shelves without that warning label. For instance, Kraft says they will comply and remove everything listed by the date. We will wait and see what changes are made in the food industry because the freezer and snack aisle could be looking drastically different in Texas the next few years.
