    Companies announcing this like they’re doing it because it’s good when it’s really it’s because of a hair brained mandate by RFK

      I mean he’s a crazy nut but I’m kind of behind this one. I do not think we should be dying our food to make it look more palatable

        Removing artificial coloring doesn’t mean they’ll no longer be dyeing food, it means they’ll be using bugs (cochineal) and algae to do it, along with other natural dyes.

          Haven’t artificial dyes been banned from most countries because they cause cancer and shit? Fuck RFK but this one seems actually beneficial.
