#867 - Vani Hari - Exposing The Food Industry’s Dangerous Lies

So basically using one set of ingredients here in the United States that are more toxic and harmful towards little children because artificial food dyes are linked to hyperactivity.

They've seen that when they study these different artificial food dyes, they contain carcinogens, so they're linked to cancer. They cause autoimmune disorders, eczema, asthma, and also the chemical BHT, which is an endocrine-disrupting chemical that you find in the lining of cereal bags as a preservative. They use that here in the United States, but they don't use that in other countries.

So I have been demanding that Kellogg's sell us the same safer versions of their cereals that they serve in other countries. And I've been doing this for a really long time. I've been doing it for over a decade. In 2015, Kellogg's said that they were going to make these changes. They got worldwide press about making these changes.

They got a lot of praise publicly and through the media when they made this announcement, but then they never did it. They said they would do it by 2018, and instead they created new cereals to hook modern children of today, like Baby Shark and Peeps and Little Mermaid and Elf on the Shelf and all of these different trick-or-treat type cereals to get people to buy their cereals.

There's a few different reasons. The first reason is that a petroleum coal tar-based dye is cheaper to put into a product than carrot juice, watermelon juice, blueberry juice that they're using in other countries to color these cereals, okay, and other products for that matter. It's cheaper. The second thing is it doesn't break down as fast, right? Petroleum lasts forever.
