Food Dyes Exposure It is easy to make money in the candy industry. What you only need is to mix up sugar, starch and the food dyes. Running business in the soft drink (liquid candy) industry is even easier! You don’t have to care about a poroduct’s shape and texture by adding countless waxes, emulsifiers, hydrogenated oils […]
Would Jesus enjoy eating the food dyes? While Easter is coming closer I keep watching people wiping out egg-shaped candies from Wal-Mart aisles.
