Indiana lawmakers push to ban 13 additives in school meals by 2027–28 to boost student health.
Indiana lawmakers are advancing a bill to ban specific additives in school meals by the 2027-28 school year, aiming to improve student health and align with federal nutrition guidelines.
The legislation, introduced by Rep. Julie McGuire, targets 13 ingredients without defining "ultra-processed food," requiring schools to post meal ingredient lists online and allowing such foods only at after-school fundraisers.
It does not restrict parent-provided meals.
The measure supports Governor Mike Braun’s health initiative, though industry groups warn additive bans could impact food safety and preservation.
The bill remains under consideration.
