Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change federal food law so that any food for people that contains high fructose corn syrup is treated as adulterated, which would bar it from sale in interstate commerce. The ban would apply to food shipped or delivered for shipment across state lines starting 2 years after the bill becomes law. Within 3 years, the Food and Drug Administration would have to report to Congress on how the food industry is changing its recipes, what regulations it has issued or changed, and any recommendations for further action by Congress.
