About CSPI

CSPI, your food and health watchdog, is one of the nation's leading public health advocacy organizations with an over 50-year record of fighting for science in the public interest. We've led efforts to win passage of many state and local policies to improve school foods, require calories on chain restaurant menu boards, and remove sugary drinks from children's menus. National policy successes include the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act; Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act; Food Safety Modernization Act; and Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act. The Regulatory Transparency and Accountability team was a major force behind a recent rule from the FDA to regulate laboratory-developed tests.
