Petition: 99% of Food Additives in the US Were Never Safety Tested by Government

Roughly 99% of chemicals added to American food products have allegedly never undergone FDA safety review or approval. Thanks to loopholes in the 1958 Food Additives Amendment, corporations can self certify their own ingredients as safe, skip notifying regulators entirely, and sell those products to families without any independent oversight. Chocolate, popcorn, protein drinks, tea bags, sausages and more may contain untested substances. You can demand Congress close these dangerous loopholes by signing the petition today.

Countries like New Zealand and several European nations use a precautionary principle, reviewing products before market entry rather than waiting for people to get sick. Americans deserve the same protection. Corporate profits should never outweigh public health, and Congress must act now. Add your name at the petition and push for real food safety reform.
