Has he ever seen the true colors of some food?

Says an artificial doctor

But his MAHA cult is giving fast food + pesticides a pass? So, this guy - aged, crackead nepo-baby, maker of murdered bird smoothies, who swears he didn’t kill but only indecently ‘played’ w/a bear cub’s corpse until trashing it in a public park - is platformed in the new yorker for health safety?

RFK Jr. is serving in an administration that is eliminating environmental rules and regulations, taking millions off food assistance and health insurance, slashing medical research, and cutting life-saving vaccinations. This is a distraction for all the ways Trump is killing us.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Man's a bleach-drinking imbecile fraud but artificial food dyes are an extravagance no one needed.

What? You mean like most of Europe did years ago? Bit backwards, isn't he??

Time to buy stock in epi pens.

They already did it with Smarties. Gone are the brilliant colours of my childhood, replaced with somewhat insipid versions. Of course, red crushed insects (red dye #4) are much more palatable and safe for humans than that nasty chemical red dye #3.

Well, I’d like to be rid of RFK Jr….

I don't like RFK at all nor do I believe he should be in his current position; however, concerning this issue specifically, I don't think is necessarily a bad thing. There's a lot synthetic chemicals in our foods supply that aren't in other countries around the globe.

They don’t have to ‘look’. Other countries have been using natural dyes and flavours for years. Eg: Froot Loops (sp?) in Canada. Your scientist should use best practice, already well established.

NBC is gonna be Big Mad about all this.

seriously? The USA is being burnt to the ground and someone’s worried about food coloring? And being covered by The New Yorker??

Good thing I've overbought food dye. (I forget I have some) My Christmas cookies will have colorful frosting. There will certainly be a run on food dye like toilet paper during Covid.

just sell the European versions in the US, problem solved

What happened to the ban on pharma ads? It is literally the only thing he mentioned so far that made any sense and poof.

For once I don't care, good.

And yet they're drinking a mixture including Ethylene Blue. A dye.

Interesting. I want the country to be rid of RFK Jr.

It's probably a not a bad idea, but there are many more pressing problems which r.f.k. jr. is either not addressing, making much, much, worse, or creating himself. He needs to go, and fast!

Hello ? Jackfruit is used in many drinks and products in the EU for color. For ex: Mountain Dew in Europe. No yellow dyes; jackfruit.

What about the toxins (PFAS) in the air and environment? Artificial food coloring's a start but miniscule in it's impact to public health compared to other more pressing issues.

Getting the microplastics out should be a higher priority. But of course that would require a more complex solution, and would mean fighting powerful industries. www.horiba.com/usa/scientif...

Literally every other country already does this. It wouldn’t be hard to just stop using bright toxic colors here.

The far-right methodology, find a couple of real issues like America's horrendous food standards then sprinkle on some batshit crazy for good measure like vaccines=bad

It’s called “eat fruits and veggies and not too many Cheetos”

Which means not cutting billions of dollars of federal grants funding locally grown food from local farmers to grow food for food banks and schools, allowing them a solid business model that allows for sales to everyone at markets etc

I wonder what kind of PAYDAY he’s gonna receive from doing this. A lot of you people don’t realize that MAGA politicians do not have our best interests in mind

Yeah, artificial food coloring is bad, polio is good. Such an intelligent guy.

Maybe he should focus on getting plastic out of our food. But he doesn't really care because conspiracy theories and junk science are so much more fun and profitable for him. The Trump administration is a fucking joke!

That would require a Health Secretary with more than half an ounce of brains.

The worm went to town on that.

I have become so twisted by all the evilness of RFK Jr that I actually caught myself rooting FOR the artificial coloring. God help me.
