Using household scanner data (April 2019–March 2024), we evaluated changes in sugar purchases and product formulation. Households reduced sugar purchases by 3.1 grams per day (−18%), and purchases of unhealthy beverages fell 44%. Reformulation and reassortment lowered sugar content by 1.16 grams per 100 milliliters (−21%) but increased sweetener and lactose use. Higher-income and nutritionally literate households showed larger reductions. Findings support mandatory labeling but highlight equity concerns and supplier substitution risks.
