food industry

Big food companies like Kraft Heinz and General Mills are finally ditching artificial dyes after years of warnings about their health risks, especially for children. The old neonbright foods are fading away, replaced by the warm golds and reds of spices and vegetables; the sharp chemical smell in the fridge is gone, replaced by something earthy and real. For decades, we let these synthetic colors slip into our lives, but now, as research piles up and parents push back, the industry is being forced to listen. Returning to natural colors isn’t just about health it’s about reclaiming a sense of respect for our bodies and what we eat. Change comes quietly, like a soft curtain lifting, but suddenly the world looks different.
