So, what is it? Yellow 6: Understanding Its Applications and Potential Health Impacts
Yellow 6 is chemically created by diazotizing (chemical reaction) 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid with sulfuric acid and sodium nitrite or hydrochloric acid and sodium nitrite. It may also be blended with other substances.
Yummy. Is it approved for use in food?
Yellow 6 is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius.
Awesome.
Does it cause Cancer? A few articles here:
Sudan I Is a Potential Carcinogen for Humans:
Sudan I3 was used as a food coloring in several countries (1), but it has been recommended as unsafe, because it causes tumors in the liver or urinary bladder in rats, mice, and rabbits, and is considered a possible carcinogen and mutagen for humans (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
Yellow #6, a toxic chemical, is a sulfonated form of Sudan I. This poisonous substance was one of the original petroleum azo compound dyes developed in the late 19th century during the European textile boom. Sudan 1 is classified as a level three carcinogen, meaning that it caused cancerous tumors in lab animals, but has no specific link to cancer in humans.
Petroleum byproducts are tasty and nutritious.
Trucolor- Food Dyes Linked to Cancer, ADHD and Allergies.
Evidence suggests, though does not prove, that Blue 1, Blue 2, Green 3, Red 40 and Yellow 6 cause cancer in animals. There is certainly not “convincing evidence” of safety.- Dyed foods should be considered adulterated under the law, because the dyes make a food “appear better or of greater value than it is”–typically by masking the absence of fruit, vegetable or other more costly ingredient.”
So evidence suggests but you can’t prove it. You know who does the proving around here, people. FDA is the Law.
Is it safe to eat? From the FDA: How Safe are Color Additives?
So how safe are they? “Color additives are safe when used properly,” says Linda Katz, M.D., M.P.H., director of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Office of Cosmetics and Colors. “There is no such thing as absolute safety of any substance…”
Linda Katz just retired as Director of the FDA Office of Cosmetics and Colors on January 11, 2025. Thanks Linda.
What products contain FD&C Yellow #6?
Quack Quack Go no comment. Maybe he scared he might get fake H5N1. Quack Quack may get ventilated, I mean, have his ventilation shut down.
USDA Ventilation Shutdown Plus (+) Policy, January 2022.
Depopulation. DeBirdication. Quack Quack keep low profile. Millions of birds debirded with ventilation shutdown due to (insert PCR test here). Millions of people depeopled with hookup to ventilators due to (insert PCR test here). Hard to get Congress to appropriate tens of thousands of dollars for every bird death. Strategy same.
Speaking of Quacks:
What was the True Cause of Deaths in "H5N1" Patients 1997-2006?
This article will highlight the importance of checking into the actual causes of deaths said to be associated with alleged viruses. For instance, a “WEF Doctor,” Leana Wen, has recently warned that H5N1 will kill 52% of humans unless the public takes vaccines. Wen: “I feel like we should have learned our lesson from COVID. That just because we aren’t testing, it doesn’t mean that the virus isn’t there.”
Anyways, FD&C Yellow #6 exists. The FDA says it is in “cereals, ice cream, and baked goods.” The FDA was careful not to name any name brands, because it would be impolite to promote their superior taste and flavors. But I will.
First-ever study reveals amounts of food dyes in brand-name foods.
Skittles and M&M's, which are dyed with Blue 1, Blue 2, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, and Red 40, had the highest levels found in candies. Skittles Original had 33.3 mg per serving; M&M's Milk Chocolate had 29.5 mg per serving. Both candies are made by Mars, Inc.
Remember to eat them properly.
