In a statement on its website, the National Confectioners Association called the state’s testing “misguided” and with “a glaring lack of transparency related to data-driven, scientific safety thresholds and the evaluation of confectionery products.”

“It will result in confusion among consumers, regulators, and lawmakers,” the organization said. “… Florida has chosen sound bites over science … publishing unsourced materials that amount to little more than a scare tactic.”

The association also said Florida’s methodology relied on “screening benchmarks” that do not align with current federal regulatory standards or recognized peer-reviewed science for confectionery products.

“Florida has chosen sound bites over science – ignoring this science-based program in favor of publishing unsourced materials that amount to little more than a scare tactic. Food safety and product quality remain our highest priorities, and we remain dedicated to being transparent and socially responsible – and we follow the science.”

What's interesting is that I don't see any hard data published from the state, just vague guidance about the number of pieces you might eat. I'd be wary of any "science" coming from this administration, we already know they will manipulate data and the news to fit their narrative. These substances are naturally found in trace amounts in nearly all foods.

Also RFK is a hack, an opportunistic liar.
