HB 1912 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Folic acid; Corn Masa Nutrition Enhancement Act; terms; corn masa flour; wet corn masa product; nutritional labeling; manufacture labeling; exceptions; effective date.

HB 1912 requires corn masa flour (like masa harina) to contain 0.7 milligrams of folic acid per pound and wet corn masa products (made via nixtamalization) to contain 0.4 milligrams per pound, effective January 1, 2026. It mandates specific nutritional labeling for folic acid content and product type on packaging, aligning with federal standards. The law exempts cottage food operations, food facilities, and small-volume manufacturers from the folic acid requirements, and explicitly excludes snack foods from coverage. This bill directly affects producers and sellers of corn masa flour and wet corn masa products in Oklahoma.
