In 2016, first lady Michelle Obama lead the reform to update the nutrition facts label displayed on packaged foods in an attempt to provide greater transparency to consumers. Major changes included the removal of Vitamin A and C from the mandatory label and the addition of Potassium, Vitamin D, and Added Sugar. Moreover, the formatting for number of calories was to be enlarged and emboldened and serving sizes for certain product types were to be adjusted to better reflect the amounts typically eaten by consumers.
