“The federal government says its ending a whole slew of ‘obsolete’ U.S. food standards that Trump administration officials say also include ‘unnecessary’ ones. ‘I’m eliminating outdated food regulations that no longer serve the interests of American families,’ stated U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that it’s revoking, or proposing to revoke, 52 federal standards for scores of food products in items such as canned fruit, vegetables, dairy, baked goods and macaroni products.” (07/16/25)
