The 2018 Farm Bill set the U.S. on a path toward significantly greater national exposure to cannabidiol (CBD) when it authorized cultivation of varieties of cannabis (or “industrial hemp”) bred to have minimal concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). However, despite some specific funding earmarked for FDA and its work with CBD, we have seen little federal movement toward establishing a pathway for using CBD in foods and beverages.
