CA: Legislators move to forbid colors in school snacks

Source: SFGate

“The California Legislature passed a bill that prohibits schools from serving snacks that contain certain synthetic food dyes because, according to lawmakers, those dyes can cause behavioral and developmental problems in children. Assembly Bill 2316, which was sent to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk last week, would require snack-makers to remove the dyes from their products if they want them served in California schools. The additives are used in Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, Takis and other colorful snacks.” (09/05/24)
