Require Warning Labels on Ultra-Processed Foods in Michigan


Require Warning Labels on Ultra-Processed Foods in Michigan
The Issue
Ultra-processed foods (sugary cereals, sodas, chips, frozen pizzas, etc.) now make up almost 60% of calories eaten in Michigan and are directly linked to our state’s high rates of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
Countries like Mexico and Chile already require big black warning labels on these products — and childhood obesity is dropping fast as a result.
Michigan deserves the same protection.
We call on the Michigan Legislature and the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (MDARD) to pass a new law requiring clear front-of-pack warning labels on all ultra-processed foods sold in our state — just like Mexico’s proven black octagon labels.
No more hidden harm. Give Michigan families the information they need to make healthier choices.
Sign now and demand warning labels on ultra-processed junk food in Michigan!
