Court bans cancer causing pesticides in processed foods
In a 3-0 ruling the Sth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals barred cancer causing pesticides in processed foods under the Delaney Clause but did not demand removal of products or declare current items unsafe. The decision directs EPA to enforce the 1958 law, likely prompting safer pest control methods across ketchup jelly grain mixes and other items. It positions environmental groups to press for stricter standards while leaving shelves unchanged for now.
