A child who eats 2 cups of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, a small bag of Skittles, and 8 ounces of Crush Orange will consume 102 milligrams of artificial dye. Behavioral tests found as little as 30 mg can cause adverse reactions. Photo credit: Ariana Stone).
Part of our transition 4 years ago to eating what we call " Real Food" was eating white cheese not orange or marble cheeses. Why?
Well because food dyes effect children's behaviour and orange cheddar cheese is only orange because it is dyed with food colouring! Gross right!
It's totally unnecessary and can effect your children's behaviour!
It's not just cheese either! So many processed foods contain food dyes even cereal that isn't colourful probably has orange or yellow dye.
This article talks about the importance companies labelling how much food dye is in their products and I think this would be a great eye opener to consumers!
