New York has passed sweeping food additive legislation that, if signed by the Governor, will fundamentally reshape how food manufacturers and suppliers operate in the state. The Food Safety and Chemical Disclosure Act (S1239F) (the “Act”) would establish the first state-level disclosure and database regime for substances that companies have independently determined to be “Generally Recognized as Safe” (“GRAS”). The bill represents a significant escalation in state-level food safety regulation with far-reaching consequences for food manufacturers, ingredient suppliers, and consumer products companies operating in the New York market.
