As I wrote on my blog in March, Food coloring is basically in everything....edible and non-edible. I will not write a long list as I have done these past weeks of acceptible substitutes because there are too many.
What I will do is insist we all read labels. Whatever product it is: a loaf of bread, candybar, oatmeal, pasta, jam...whatever; read the labels. Food coloring is snuck into everything.
Companies that keep good practicing standards when it comes to food use food as food coloring. Natural food products with a reddish to purplish hue use extracted colors from beets. A yellow, orange, or brownish hue is usually attributed to annatto, which is a spice.
As you continue on your personal exploration for a better, healthier you, you will find those companies that "naturally" color their food.
I wish you health,
