Mr. Kennedy has singled out Froot Loops as an example of a product with too many artificial ingredients, questioning why the Canadian version has fewer than the U.S. version. But he was wrong. The ingredient list is roughly the same, although Canada’s has natural colorings made from blueberries and carrots while the U.S. product contains red dye 40, yellow 5 and blue 1 as well as Butylated hydroxytoluene, or BHT, a lab-made chemical that is used “for freshness,” according to the ingredient label.
NYT: Kennedy’s Vow to Take On Big Food Could Alienate His New G.O.P. Allies
The Canadian version doesn't have less chemicals than USA, except all these chemicals that are in the us version that's absent in canada.... they really wrote that
"Everything's a chemical chud, just because it has blueberry juice instead of phthalocyanine blue doesn't mean it has less chemicals!"
I mean, that's dumb, but NYT cannot even make that defense. They admit in their article that RFK talked about artificial ingredients while labeling the Canadian variants as 'natural colorings'.
Of course, natural colorings aren't always good either, though blueberries and carrots are very benign. Here in Europe, one of the natural colorings they foist on us is one made from insects.
I think every country allows incarnadine. Not saying it's good, but I don't think it's been banned anywhere yet.
I mean this crap: https://www.britannica.com/technology/cochineal
It's almost in every red-dyed product here in Europe.
Except our ingredient list wouldn't be allowed to put "blueberry juice" they'd be forced to write "anthocyanin" which is the chemical name for the part that makes it look blue. I wish they would change that rule for natural ingredients so I don't have to hear some of the more loony people on our side whine about sodium bicarbonate in store bought cookies as they add two table spoons of baking soda to their all natural homemade cookies.
"Only like 1 or 2 of the ingredients in the American version are endocrine-disrupting inflammatory poisons."
Because they know most people are retards who never look past the headline.
Frankly, not reading their vapid articles is smart, provided that you don't believe the headlines either.
somebody read that after it was created by AI language, then they submitted it
