AdvertisementBernie Sanders is taking on ultra-processed food in his final weeks leading the Senate health panel.
Sanders wants the US to catch up with other countries, which have cigarette-style warning labels for food.
He is campaigning for legislation that would slap warning labels on the front of ultra-processed foods — a step other countries took years ago.
Some argue mandatory warning labels would violate their right to free speech.
Sanders hopes this discussion will harness the buzz around Kennedy's MAHA movement to make warning labels a policy priority.
