    Wow. Finally this administration does something that seems like a good idea.

    Nobody tell them they will be following the EU’s lead by doing this.

      Yeah, it’s extremely rare when I read “Trump administration…” followed by an action I agree with. Broken clock and such.

      Except they will probably not regulate natural dyes, or even force listing of the replacements. Some of the replacements will not be healthy.

      So like usual, it looks good at first sight but will sicken and poison many children and adults instead.

      food allergies too!

        Definitely hope for the best that we’ll actually get healthy food from this, but expect the worst in that they will fuck it up and somehow make us sicker.

        I have a relative who developed a deadly allergy to dill suddenly, as in her throat starts closing if she’s in the same room as a pickle deadly. She has a lot of difficulty contacting companies to find out if dill is one of the “natural flavors” in their products, because many will simply stonewall any attempts to learn if she can safely consume their product

      Ehh… natural food colorings are often a lot more allergenic then the artificial ones. So if somebody has a allergy to annato or cochineal some such this could be bad news for them.
