FDA Docket Pairs Old Weedkiller Petition With Kids' Cereal Tests
Two 2019 documents about weedkiller limits and oat testing land in the exact same FDA file, but regulators have yet to rule on the issue.
By Foodie Pundit Newsroom - Published - Updated - Section: Policy Regulation
Key points
- Regulations.gov posted both the EWG-titled children’s-food testing attachment and the EPA-titled oats petition attachment in FDA docket FDA-2026-P-11717 on October 5, 2026.
- The records connect the issue to oats and foods marketed to children, but they document no recall, product-specific finding, price change or agency decision.
- No lobbying filing, contract, funding amount, ownership disclosure, comment deadline or final action appears in the supplied records.
- The next meaningful milestone is a dated FDA or EPA action stating what happens to the oats-related request.
