This includes providing clear and accurate information about the ingredients used, potential allergens, and any other relevant information that may impact the safety of these products. Furthermore, the bill includes provisions to enhance the FDA's oversight and enforcement capabilities when it comes to regulating infant and toddler food products.

Overall, the Infant and Toddler Food Safety Act aims to prioritize the health and well-being of infants and toddlers by ensuring that the food products designed for them are safe and free from harmful substances. By implementing these measures, the legislation seeks to provide parents and caregivers with peace of mind knowing that the food they are feeding their young children is safe and nutritious.
