I believe we are about to start seeing mass shortages due to inflation soon and this is the government preparing to shift blame to the producers.
Multiple news outlets have been posting about this ban starting yesterday and it appears to all be the types of items that would get discontinued first in a shortage situation.
@Twothousandshadows The artificial coloring can be removed without affecting anything. The food might look different, but it will taste the same.
@Tfmonkey yes I agree that this specific coloring problem could be solved but it would require a mass recall or destruction of products containing it in those states.
That’s going to create half empty shelves and would probably result in some of those product just being discontinued all together.

Obviously I’m kinda just reaching for straws but it suddenly now being a issue as war looms and prices creep higher is an odd and kinda convenient coincidence.
@Twothousandshadows
Banning Oreo Cookies is a White supremacist dog whistle for banning Oreo people & inter racial marriage
Banning Oreo & Faming Hot Cheetos is a white supremacist dog whistle for banning food that black people like
Due to other regulations the amount of pottassium in gatorade is already limited making it not as effective as tomato juice, soy milk, and orange juice with the right amount of Sodium salt added for electrolyte stuff
Banning Lucky charms is anti Irish dog whistle
My back up information for this theory is the states suggesting this bill are mostly bankrupt states caused by Marxist policies already creating artificially high prices… meaning they will be the first to feel that pressure of shortages before everyone else.
This will probably go the same way as those covid news articles stating “suddenly X common day thing causes massive heart attacks”.
