- We recognize that the road to recovery will be a long one and @USDA is committed for the duration. Aside from causing the loss of lives and homes, Hurricane Helene also destroyed farms, ruined crops, and set off an agricultural crisis. “We’re going to do everything we can to help farmers get back on their feet,” USDA Under Secretary Robert Bonnie tells @KyraPhillips. https://x.com/SecVilsack/status/1843039494507057607

Beginning July 1, 2026, manufacturers must use “Best if Used By” to indicate peak quality & “Use By” to designate food safety.
