New FDA proposal could redefine how novel food ingredients are approved
Plus, Wildtype and UPSIDE Foods join lawsuit challenging Texas ban on cultivated meat, ProVeg helps secure global ISO standard for plant-based food labeling, EASAC urges EU to back meat alternatives in new roadmap for protein transition, much more!
Regulatory shifts, scaling hurdles, and the future of alternative proteins all feature in this week’s roundup.
The FDA is moving to tighten food safety oversight with a proposal for mandatory GRAS notifications – a change that could significantly impact how new ingredients reach the market.
From there, we look at how one packaging giant is collaborating with a bioprocessing start-up to solve some of fermentation’s biggest scale-up challenges. Could partnerships like this be the key to making large-scale production viable?
Meanwhile, a legal battle is heating up in Texas, where two cultivated meat pioneers have joined forces to challenge a state-level ban. The case could set important precedents for the sector’s regulatory landscape in the US.
Standardization is also making headlines this week, with a new global ISO framework set to bring much-needed clarity to plant-based food labeling – a step that could help boost consumer trust worldwide.
On the innovation front, a fresh report shines a light on the untapped potential of whole-cut alternatives, suggesting that the next wave of product development could go far beyond ground and formed formats.
And finally, Europe’s scientific community is calling for stronger policy support in a new roadmap.
