There are high-stakes changes on the horizon for the well-known California regulation that will likely and more deeply impact food packaging and food packagers.
Most United States citizens even outside of California are aware at least in a general sense of that state’s Proposition 65 regulation from warnings and cautions on the labels of many common products that states “WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and other reproductive harm.”
Although the label warning now seems ubiquitous when used across such a diverse range of consumer products, it can still give users pause before buying or continuing use of a product.
