Small confectioners grappling with shortage of sugar and its rising costs - FOX 32 Chicago

Youdle News Repost:   In this FOX 32 special report, the rising costs in the U.S. sugar industry are explored, impacting businesses like Graham's Chocolates in Geneva. The industry-wide sugar supply shortage, linked to outdated U.S. policies, particularly the 1934 Sugar Act, limits domestic production and complicates timely imports. Current rules dictate the U.S. grows 85% of its sugar, importing only 15%, leading to significantly higher sugar prices domestically. Small businesses fear competition with larger companies for the limited supply, potentially affecting recipes and pricing, with implications for workers and consumers alike. The Alliance for Fair Sugar Policy calls for congressional changes in the 2023 Farm Bill to address the challenges posed by the outdated sugar program. Click for more information.

U.S. Schools Brace for Milk Carton Shortage Impact Across States A challenge looms over schools in New York, Pennsylvania, California, and Washington state as they prepare for an impending milk carton shortage, a situation that has reverberated across multiple states, as confirmed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In response to the brewing crisis, California's state education officials are advising schools to embrace flexibility. This includes measures like limiting milk choices, opting for boxed shelf-stable milk, and utilizing bulk dispensers to ensure that students continue to have access to milk.

Ban on Hair Relaxers Under Consideration

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (Youdle) -  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is gearing up to propose a ban on certain hair-straightening products.

The rule is under the Department of Health and Human Services and is currently in the Proposed Rule Stage, with no specific legal deadline mentioned.
