I generally crave salty snacks (popcorn!), but when I crave sugar, my favorite candy is SweeTarts. I wondered why it was not available for purchase in Sverige.
TIL SweeTARTS contain synthetic dyes that require safety warning labels in the EU, which make them unappealing to consumers. Specifically relevant for me, there is evidence synthetic dyes exacerbate ADHD symptoms.
@Jeremiah I crave just about anything :ablobcatcry:
It is telling how fear of adding a warning label & potentially losing sales made companies remove synthetic dye in the EU, but it being possibly bad for your health is not a good enough reason to do it elsewhere.
