It’s about damn time. People have know about this for 50 years.

Smh if you thought anything in that entire isle was good for you….

Fruit Loops are sold in Europe by Kellogg's, they just aren't as bright and colorful. So the company CAN do it, it's just cheaper the American way. It's all about the profits!

You can eat the pre sweetened cereal or you can eat the box. You’ll get the same nutrition either way.

[jstubbz]

Feed your kids eggs, fruit yogurt for breakfast instead of the poison.

[BajatheChickenMan]

Why just now, that's what I want to now. This stuff has been poison for DECADES!

[steelionx]

I've been eating cereal as a snack for about a few decades now! I've been calling them morning candy since.

[truckcamper]

Who can afford that stuff? Never mind it kills you.

These companies don't care! They know this. They don't care. Hit them in their pockets. The bright side of this is people are waking up on consuming junk food.

I make my own cereal for my kids. Bran flakes, a little granola, dried berries and a little honey and cinnamon. My kids love it and never ate fruit loops or any other garbage.

[paulinacoccoz]

Just avoiding to buy their Brand will take care of the problem.

[randalldare]

What about the oil that they cook them in???

It’s very difficult to get foods in the USA that are not harmful or cancerous. Pickles have Yellow 5, for example. Why? Because in other countries they don’t use Yellow 5 in pickles and these pickles look and taste great.

[F-ci]

and Americans wonder why Europe doesn’t buy American food. 😂

[jackieeastwood]

Taking dyes out of food will actually save on the cost of producing food and give us healthier food. The FDA needs to step up and ban all artificial coloring in food, the artificial ingredients is partially why the rest of the world won't buy our food.

It's okay if cereal gets more expensive. No one really needs to eat it anyway. Cereal is not a whole food. It's processed junk food. It's kibble for people.

[SondaSmith-wh]

My man has been telling people the same thing for over 10 years. My daughter will not let her kids eat dyed foods because of everything he has taught her.

[WeAreConstruction]

Thank you rfk jr for finally getting us healthy again!

Did you know that Reducing sugar intake can lead to mental and physical withdrawal symptoms

[roberthillis-qjer]

I see a lot of children that eat this crap and they are three times the normal size, with all the health risks it should be illegal.
