US House looks to hike work requirements for food aid

U.S. House lawmakers on Monday laid out a plan to increase work requirements for some recipients of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program food aid benefits, and to eventually require states to share more of the cost of the program, according to the farm committee bill text. The House Agriculture Committee proposal would also restrict future increases to SNAP benefits that outpace inflation and would narrow the ability of states to waive work requirements during periods of high unemployment. The proposal advances the committee's efforts to achieve $230 billion in savings, part of the Republican plan to pass a sweeping budget package in line with President Donald Trump's agenda.

The F.D.A. Has Approved Three 'Natural' Food Colorings

Here is what we know about their safety and how they'll be used.

The FDA has approved two new natural food colorings, Galdieria extract and blue butterfly pea flower extract, to expand the palette of colors available for food products. Galdieria extract, derived from a type of algae, provides a range of colors from pink to purple, while blue butterfly pea flower extract offers a vibrant blue hue. These additions are part of a broader trend towards using natural ingredients in food, driven by consumer demand for cleaner labels and more sustainable products. The approval also includes calcium phosphate as a color additive, which can help stabilize and enhance the color of various food items. This move by the FDA reflects an ongoing effort to meet consumer preferences for natural and recognizable ingredients in their food.
