United States Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s influence is already being felt throughout the food industry in the United States, and you may soon see its impact on your spice drawer.
In late March, McCormick & Company, one of the largest spice and seasoning brands in the world and a name that’s likely in your own pantry, announced on an earnings call that it’s working with its restaurant and food manufacturer clients to reformulate products, as customers move away from dyes and other food additives targeted by Kennedy and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
“We are seeing a tick-up in reformulation activity,” Brendan Foley, the chief executive officer of McCormick & Company, shared on the call. According to Foley, this is happening across its customer base. Per the executive, this aligns with “what you’re seeing and being written out in the news media regarding what we’re hearing from the new administration.”
