It’s the dosing that gets a person, while the elephant in the room that’s even worse is the massive quantities of sugar it’s mixed into that cancer feeds on. Pray over your food and thank God for His abundant provision, remembering “...and if you drink any deadly poison it will in no way harm you.”

Hell:
American wife

English cook
Chinese salary

upon banning red dye No. 3 from cosmetics in 1990, the FDA downplayed its dangers, noting that the risk of developing cancer from the dye appeared to be less than 1 in 100,000—small compared to the risk of natural disasters (70 in 100,000) or the risk of a train or plane crash (6 in 100,000). Representatives of the food industry had similar messages, with one industry study reportedly saying a person would have to eat 724,000 cans of fruit cocktail a year for 70 years to ingest an equivalent amount of red dye No. 3 as the rats fed the high 4 percent diet dose

Reading the ingredients on a food container, you need a degree in Chemistry to know what you are eating!!
