Summary
The Food Labeling Modernization Act of 2026 would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to tighten nutrition labeling rules. It requires a standardized front‑of‑package symbol system that highlights calories, added sugars, sodium, saturated fat and other nutrients, and forces manufacturers to clearly state the percentage of whole grains and the amount and form of fruit or vegetable when those claims are used. The goal is to give shoppers a quick, easy way to spot healthier foods.
