Summary
Based on the bill's title, this legislation would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to designate gluten-containing grain as a major food allergen. This would require food manufacturers to clearly label products containing gluten, similar to existing labeling requirements for the eight major allergens (milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soybeans). The bill aims to improve food safety and allergen disclosure for consumers with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity.
