Do Americans deserve better food? It depends on how YOU respond to this offer from Wal-Mart Stores: Celebrate America 12 “patriotic” chocolate mini cupcakes with buttercream icing. For $2.60 you get low nutritional value and apparent prevalence of artificial food dyes, emulsifiers and other wasteful food additives. DYEDIET DOESN’T BUY IT! Let’s take a look To see what did […]
How much artificial colors are in dried fruits? I am not sure about you but I knew that beyond countless sodas and candy the food dyes are also added to chewing gum, pickles, mustard and even fresh salmon. Do you know that Citrus Red No. 2 azo dye banned as a suspected carcinogen is still […]
What exactly is in your favorite candy? Yes, Skittles are a rainbow of the food dyes. And the dyes are a rainbow of health risks (see Food Dyes: A Rainbow of Risks). Years of watching the US food market has led me to an observation that most of the soft drinks and candies in America […]
24 Bullets frozen confections Summer is about to start heating 24/7 so we begin to think of getting something cool for us and our kids. Could it be 24 frozen colored bars (59 g each) of the Blue Bell for $3.47? Hope not and here is why. One of the Dye Diet’s goals is to help the […]
As I wrote before, the soft drinks and candy manufacturers do not bother to use their intellectual potential, even if they have it, to design really new products. They simply breed new brands and give different names to the same old set of the ingredients: HFCS, a bunch of preservatives, artificial flavors and the food dyes. This […]
Have you ever seen a blue raspberry? Here it is, the “sour-sational raspberry,” a soft drink with no raspberries but FD&C Blue #1 aniline food dye in it instead. Look for yourself: This is another example of the freakish marketing ideas used by the food manufacturers to trick you and your children into buying their wasteful […]
I do not believe that artificial food colors, artificial flavors, mineral oil and sulfur dioxide (“to maintain freshness”) were the ingredients of the original Yang & Smylie licorice candy. Perhaps those chemicals were added after acquisition of the business by The Hershey Company in 1977 when production of the candy has become really massive. Monstrous size businesses […]
I cannot remember that any other food manufacturer would suggest the customers to tell something like what The Hershey Company asked them for: What Do You Do With Twizzlers Candy? Well, if you think that Twizzlers were designed only to be eaten, think again. In fact some people eat them. Others do handcraft: “With the pull and […]
Fanta, Mello Yello and Big Blue Perhaps they expect you to pick up Fanta or Mello Yello of the Coca-Cola Company or Big Blue of the Big Red, Inc., from a beverage cooler when you are checking out at a local Walmart store. Your attention may be attracted by the eye-catching ”100% natural flavors” and […]
Honestly, I do not understand why so many Americans keep buying soft drinks like Gatorade and Powerade which look so obviously unhealthy liquids to me. One explanation is that they do not read the ingredient lists or perhaps do not understand what some ingredients can do to their bodies. On the other hand, this is […]
