Does your food actually contain that dye?

Look up 464,005 US packaged products from 22,841 manufacturers for Red 40, titanium dioxide, HFCS, carrageenan, seed oils and other flagged ingredients — sourced from official label filings, not a blog post.

Data comes from ingredient labels manufacturers filed with USDA — not every product or the very newest reformulation is guaranteed to be current. How this works
