    So they just use the international recipes instead of the kids crayons American version.

    Have a look at “Fruit Loops” (which have only marginal relations to any fruit). There is the International version, and the American version with colors that are illegal even in China, of all places…

      I thought when people actually took a closer look at some of these kinds of claims they ended up being debunked, or at least far more nuanced than some of the claims being made by the likes of RFK jr.

      Yeah because its the colors that are causing diabetes. Ppl complaining about artificial dyes in the US are missing the forest for the trees…

      Europeans bragging are just reverting to their natural sense of false superiority.

      The rest of the world doesnt give a shit about it at all

        No, the colors just cause cancer. The “less sugar in European food” is about diabetes. Most American food is horribly oversugared. And worse, a lot of it is HFCS. Even savoury dishes in the US are sometimes sickeningly sweet.
