Tyson to Drop High-Fructose Corn Syrup, Sucralose and Select Additives From Branded Foods by 2025

The voluntary reformulation reflects consumer demand under heightened scrutiny of food additives.

Overview

  • Tyson’s commitment applies across major brands including Tyson, Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, State Fair, Wright, ibp and Aidells.
  • The phaseout targets high-fructose corn syrup, sucralose, the preservatives BHA/BHT and the whitening agent titanium dioxide.
  • Tyson has not provided a product-level list or detailed replacement ingredients for the reformulated items.
  • The shift follows an earlier 2025 move to remove petroleum-based synthetic dyes from its U.S. branded products.
  • The decision comes as the administration and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. press food companies on sugars and additives, even as Tyson notes the targeted ingredients are FDA-approved.
