據外媒報道,近日兩名美國媽媽發起一場運動,要求卡夫食品公司停止向其在美國出售的芝士通心粉(Macaroni & Cheese)中添加可能致癌的兩種人工色素。
據報道,兩位媽媽發現,同樣是芝士通心粉,在美國出售的產品含有兩種人工色素黃色5號和黃色6號,然而在食品添加劑監管較為嚴格的英國,該產品卻不含這兩種色素。

Two mothers have launched a campaign demanding that Kraft remove the artificial food dyes in the U.S. version of its Macaroni & Cheese
Lisa Leake and Vani Hari, both from North Carolina, noticed that the brightly-colored pasta contains two synthetic substances - yellow 5 and yellow 6 - that add nothing to the flavor and may be dangerous to children's health.
They also discovered that the Illinois-based food giant makes the same product for consumers in UK but because of stricter regulations regarding additives, it is dye-free.
