Food labeling; require disclosure of certain ingredients on food packaging and provide consumer notice disclaimer.
SB 2395 would require food manufacturers in Mississippi to label products containing specific ingredients (like artificial colors, additives, and certain chemicals such as aspartame or partially hydrogenated oil) with clear disclosure on packaging and include a QR code linking to a webpage with additional details and an FDA safety disclaimer. It would also mandate restaurants to display a menu notice about seed oil use (including soybean, canola, or sunflower oil) in prepared foods. The bill includes exemptions for drugs, dietary supplements, and alcoholic beverages, with escalating fines for noncompliance starting at $100 for a second offense. Additional provisions ban certain ingredients in school meals and require nutrition education for healthcare providers, but the core focus is on consumer-facing labeling for food products.
