US Food and Drug Administration rejects petition to set Pfas limits in food
The US Food and Drug Administration rejected a legal petition to set limits on toxic Pfas 'forever chemicals' in food, despite the Environmental Protection Agency identifying food as the largest source of Pfas exposure. Testing has shown some contaminated foods contain Pfas levels comparable to drinking multiple glasses of contaminated water.
