Happy (VERY happy, apparently) July 4

What does this have to do with food politics?
- The FDA has not approved the use of cannabis and Cannabis derivatives in food products, at least for interstate commerce.
- Given this situation, New York City has banned sales of food products containing CBD.
- The FDA is taking comments on what it should do about Cannabis rules until July 16. File there here.
The FDA, litigation and maybe Congress will eventually clear up the confusion about what is and is not legal. In the meantime, you are on your own….
