Finally!
Looking forward to buying a box of fruity pebbles that were colored with fruit. Hopefully, Carmel Color is also on the list of dyes to be removed.

Rubio and Scott. Merchants of Death.
Better than the High Fructose Corn Syrup industry.
Um I was almost with him until “sugar is poison”.
Actually it’s not when consumed as nature intended.
You know what IS poison?
The artificial alternatives.
The worst part about them is they are so many times MORE sweet than sugar that if you try to wean off them back to real sugar, you end up consuming too much because your body has been addicted to the more potent sweetness of the substitutes.
You wanna go after agribusiness, go after all the ■■■■ made with corn.
This is precisely the opposite of what must happen, as I just said.
Well maybe not outlawing sugar all together but I do like the push to remove a lot of the crap.
RFK spouts a lot of crap but has one or two nuggets of good ideas (such as banning tv commercials for prescription drugs).
I work in pharma and wholeheartedly agree with the commercials thing.
Talk to your doctor- don’t get advice from an ad on TV.

Methylene Blue is not on the bad list. In fact RFK Jr uses it as a USP pure supplement.
I’d be more supportive of the government pushing education about various substances rather than bans of them.
And maybe we could look for better coordination among various governmental branches. FDA approval of substances should correlate with HHS approval.

Monk Fruit and Allulose taste nearly identical to Sucrose (table sugar), and are not only completely natural, but also non-glycemic.

I Never knew that.
Stevia is also natural and non-glycemic, but the after taste is too much for me.
But anyway, I use the other two in my coffee, smoothies, bread, etc…
When I do have the occasional soda, I feel energized, almost like I’m having a sugar rush. lol Low insulin resistance is vital to good health, and convenient for a needed rush of energy.

Apparently General Mills tried to sell Trix using real fruit colors. People preferred the bright colors of artificial dyes. Without a government rule applied to all, a company would lose to the competition if they didn’t use the bright colors of artificial dyes.
