Food Chemical Reassessment Act of 2025
This bill requires the FDA's Office of Food Chemical Safety to reassess the safety of at least 10 food additives or related substances every three years starting in 2026. It specifically prioritizes substances like titanium dioxide, red dye 40, BHA, BHT, and sodium nitrite for initial review. If reassessments find substances unsafe, the FDA must update regulations, revoke approvals, or require new pre-market notifications. The law affects food manufacturers by mandating regular safety reviews of additives already in use, with results made public through FDA notices.
