I Bought BANNED Food Products From Our Childhood 🚫 

Oh man I didn’t even know about red dye 3 until we did this video! Have def heard about red dye 40 more. Terrible!

@@honeysuckle Absolutely. Hopefully we can come up with better (and still delicious) alternatives. ♥ Great video.

unpopular opinion but we shouldn't have to dye our food or healthcare products -_- I'd rather have clear stuff anyways

No it doesn’t

My daughter was allergic to Red 40 when she was younger. She grew out of it luckily. But hers was a serious allergy. Whole body would be hives and she would have to have breathing treatments. I didn't realize how much they put that in things that weren't even something you would think normally. We were on vacation and just wanted to get something quick and easy so we ran to the grocery store to just get some hotdogs. For some reason I checked the ingredients and of course it had Red 40. I was so glad I had checked. The crazy thing is that we got lucky figuring out she was allergic to it too. She had been having this reaction and couldn't find what she could be allergic to. She was only about 9 mo old. Well she had been eating some fruit loops and happened to spit one out and it was sitting on her arm. Next thing you know this huge welt from where it was touching her skin.

Definitely. From an outside view, the stuff that is allowed to be called food in America is shocking! Edit: oh man, that chicken looked absolutely vile! I have never seen chicken meat like that.

@@PirikkoP that chicken made me pause the video for a moment.

@@PirikkoP I did see chicken meat like that but that one literally gone bad because we forgot it in the car.

Yup, so that means they can make it for US products.

milk isnt actually that great as its actually, on average, 87% water. Believe it or not, key lime pie is the best remedy for heat. Or a mix of drinking a lime simple syrup with honey and then a spoonful of peanut butter.

incorrect. the best way to actually neutralize capsaicin is acid. try a squirt of lemon.

My dad swears by olive oil. I've tried it a few times when i overestimated my spice tolerance and, idk, maybe we're just fooling ourselves but I think it works?

@@ScribdoodleI can see oil making sense since the capsaicin is soluble in oil.

As someone who is obsessed with the type of Buldak stew and eats one every month, I can say that the best thing to help with the spicy is something acidic like pickles, that’s why most mukbangers have something pickled in their videos.

See that's why I like to try things from other countries. (I'm from Canada)

lol tictacs too are white in Canada uk eu but orange are orange… and also people seem to enjoy the eu flavored ones better than USA

@@kayoss8787people like synthetic food i guess

@@Uchiha.Itachii “Love” and addiction are two different things… this is like saying people just love heroin… especially if you have additives that cause you to overeat like livestock… fun fact look at Saudi’s Arabia that fell in love with American fast food. The rise of overweight and obesity has been particularly alarming in Saudi Arabia-The rate has nearly doubled over the past 50 years. The estimated number of people with T2DM in KSA will increase substantially from around 555,000 in 1992 to approximately 7.4 million by 2022.

The olive oil story is crazy but I’m so glad there are checks!!

that is what america (& everywhere tbh) should do

Are you from Norway by any chance? I’m from Norway and we are stupidly strict people laugh over us because what we ban literally make no sense 😂

@@TheMimmieb sadly not 😁 I'm from Austria

I know right! I was shocked too

The reliance on rat testing is difficult. Rats are more susceptible to cancers and allergens than the average human or many other species.

For real, it literally just got banned for being too spicy

So does that mean if we can pronounce it, it's safe?😂 *lead, arsenic, anthrax*

i hate this saying 😂😂 they don’t realize that behind the common household name there is a scientific name behind it

And when you find a brand that does use beet and annatto, it's some waspy organic extra expensive health food brand that charges 20 dollars for a package of 6 cookies.

Will they do it for food? I know they use to crush beetles for makeup but I think many don’t do that anymore (at least newer ones).

I love it too

Uncle Roger wants to know.... WHY SO WEAK???

@@eldoradocanyonro I dunno man hahaha :D My body accepts like 1/2 or 3/4ths of the package

How many people have died of cancer who can't say the same thing?

@@Emilygregoire9 My husband and I agree. And we just trashed a handful of these that were lurking in our pantry…🙏🏻

You're probably all nicely preserved from the chemicals ❤😆

Haha my blind eye didn’t even notice the R in the spelling 🤦🏻‍♀️ makes sense!!

I was going to say the same

As a Canadian who purchases Irn-Bru from time to time, I'm almost 100% sure it's not banned.

Try South african iron brew. Yum!

Oh no!!!!

It can also be from the machine that cut it from the ribs. Usually saline water is used with frozen bagged chicken.

12:43 she doesn’t even take a sip!

Its chemical spice not naturally occurring nothing about eating this daily is healthy for you . Most Koreans are eating balanced meals alongside this type of ramen

Hahah

Oh that is so good ! I always have some at home.

dude capsaicin just makes it spicy, it does not actually kill anyone as long as you are not allergic to it or hypersensitive to spice. It's not harmful.

My family loves it! 🔥

ahh yes when korea and japan have some of the highest rates of stomach cancer in the world, we should totally be copying what they eat.

The ban was made because ONE mom complained, we can still get ridiculously spicy stuff like the one chip challenge for example, it's literally only those 3 noodles.

This makes no sense, because some states are banning vegan meats they make in labs.

I was curious about that. I was planning on trying some different drinks for a video.

Same

You da best!!

That’s good news!! Maybe they’re starting to phase it out! So sorry for your loss hear about your son. It’s so concerning and sad what is in our food these days!

But a Vietnamese hack is to drink hot water to help with the spice, not sure if it’s a myth or placebo now 😂

Agreed. It's so inflammatory. I used to be a diet soda fiend and suffered from plantar fasciitis in my feet . When I stopped drinking diet Pepsi the pain went away. But I missed the soda so I started drinking it again. The pain came back. That was enough for me. Never touched it again, it's been 7 years. Now I only drink carbonated water because I realized too that it was the fizz I missed, not the taste ❤

I don’t think it needs to be ban, I think more awareness needs to brought to it. I don’t experience anything bad from it, but I know others do. So, just needs more awareness like everything else really.

I mean having it occasionally probably won’t do much tbh lol I haven’t had it recent, but I’m sure my Mom used it at some point

It's surprising. The Austrian and the international Pez websites state "no artificial colors" and don't mention those dyes in the ingredients, so I am really puzzled that American Pez has this stuff.
