Gov. Gavin Newsom's executive order aims to address the health risks of ultra-processed foods and synthetic food dyes while promoting access to healthier options.
Newsom emphasizes that 'the food we eat shouldn't make us sick with disease or lead to lifelong consequences,' highlighting the importance of safe food choices.
The order mandates state departments to develop strategies by April for reducing the availability of harmful food items, possibly including warning labels on junk foods.
California is committed to collaborating with industry, consumers, and experts to mitigate the impact of unhealthy food options and ensure a healthier future for all residents.
