Blue Bell composition, in turn, was found very similar to Kool-Aid Bursts and various Kool-Aid Bursts were found identical to each other.

DyeDiet DOESN’T BUY IT!
- Crush Orange Risk, Nutrition and Dye Content
Brominated vegetable oil is much more dangerous than hydrogenated vegetable oil because it is capable for alkylation and splitting of bromide in the body. See Toxic Effects of Brominated Vegetable Oils. Besides, Orange Crush carries about 60 mg of the combined Yellow 6 and Red 40 artificial food colorants (azo dyes) per bottle. Read the Feingold Association’s report: Behavior, Learning and Health The Dietary Connection. Even Nigeria is now concerned about toxicity of the azo dyes: Toxicity of azo dyes.

Red DyeDiet “Dyegram” points on the high risks and low nutritional value. See the diagram explanation. If you drink the whole bottle, 50 mg of Red 40 will be distruibuted in your bloodstream.
