Yellow Dye No.5

"Dateline: WASHINGTON — There is no proof that foods with artificial colorings cause hyperactivity in most children and there is no need for these foods to carry special warning labels, a government advisory panel voted Thursday."
Somehow I don't get a warm sense of reassurance when I see this array of cupcakes at the local grocery store. Would you want your child eating one of these sugar-ladened confections?
Sugar-laden, sure. (Assuming I can drop them off at grandma's house after.) But covered in that frighteningly-colored stuff? No thank you!

@sourkraut I know! These colors are frighteningly fake.

They are not very appealing to me...then again, if they were covered with chocolate frosting, that would be a whole other thing!!!

Yummy! I'm a sucker for strawberry.

OHMY! They look so pretty...but not sure that I'd want to eat them.

They just don't look appetizing to me..hate all that artificial stuff from the food coloring to the sugery frosting...not good for the kids.

Who was on that panel anyway-stockholders of the companies that produce the dyes? People who have never dealt with children after eating these goodies at someone's birthday party? Really- it doesn't take a brain surgeon to see that this stuff turns kids into screaming mimis after eating it.

Allison great colours and a great composition , but your words and narrative lift the image from good to thought provoking. Well done

They're so pretty! (But ADHD or not... I tend to shy away from eating things with such bright colors!)

I must say they look very pretty, but I am not sure that I would feel happy about children eating them??
April 6th, 2011  
The colors are so bright that they don't look appetizing to me.
Good shot.,
