You would think the food corps would love to save money by not putting stuff in that they have to buy.................

Yes.

But meanwhile, let’s not look at the federal government funding and directives that killed hundreds of thousands with hospital “pandemic” protocols.

Pump up rats on almost any chemical and there will be bad effects.

Urgent priority?

There is NO evidence that the food dyes are harmful.

Agreed. Their hypocrisy on this issue is astounding. Me, I'm always a bit squeamish about government demanding anything.

The reds and browns were my favorites, even if they all tasted the same.

RFK is a loose cannon with little science or medical training.

He got my favorite weed killer banned. Now weeds thrive on the typical Lowes products.

A non-zero amount of people (maybe a many as 1-5%) have allergic reactions to food dyes.
