Not to put too fine a point on it, but the phrase “made with no artificial colors” being printed on something has never influenced my purchasing decision.
But maybe I’m an outlier in that regard.
But this seems like a bit of a nothing-burger to me. From what I can tell, it’s not that Titanium Dioxide was banned and now he’s allowing it. It’s that it’s always been allowed, but now he’s letting products that contain it to put “no artificial coloring” on the package.
Naturally derived dyes obviously aren’t definitionally healthier than artificial ones, and some natural ones can in fact be bad for you. But the label doesn’t say “no bad for you dyes,” it says “no artificial dyes.” It’s something of a useless lable in the first place, no?
