Is it any wonder our country has become so stupid? Garbage In, Garbage Out.

You’d probably have to consume a truckload of red food coloring every week of the year before it would harm you.

But if you’re an illegal immigrant, or if you glue yourself to the road for a leftwing cause, no problem. Britain is going to hell in a handbasket.

Wife II and me made some wicked green apple vodkas with jolly ranchers. I’d always put bacon in mine.

“…. The UK prides itself on high food standards….”

Ha, ha! What a laugh. I was stationed in England in the 70s. Their food was awful.

What’s wrong with Red #3 other than it is the same color as a MAGA hat?

I have three friends who are FDA import inspectors and one who's a USDA inspector specializing in imports. They tell me the two worst are Brazil and China. There are others, but they don't import very much.

Does the UK ban “clot shots” that are commercially marketed and made mandatory by their government?

Can’t ban the likes of Gates and Monsanto. If you can’t pronounce an ingredient or a food never rots on your kitchen counter, you probably shouldn’t be eating it.

More than 30 years ago the Food and Drug Administration told the cosmetics industry that it could no longer use an artificial color called FD&C Red No. 3, also known as Red Dye No. 3 and Red Dye 3. That’s because high doses of it had been found to cause cancer in animals.

In September 2023 the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), a food and health watchdog group, sent a petition to the FDA urging the agency to prohibit Red Dye No. 3 in food, dietary supplements, and ingested drugs. Consumer Reports signed it, along with 20 other advocacy groups and three individuals.

Red No. 3 dye, also known as erythrosine, is a synthetic dye derived from petroleum.

Never heard of “Swedish Fish, Jolly Ranchers, and Twizzlers”.
