EVERYTHING! It's a food color used to make foods look less white

(like vanilla pudding), yellow-green (pickles, Mountain Dew), bright

orange (Sunny Delite, cheetos), or yellow (Country Time lemonade,

eggnog). There is no way to tell if it's in a food product unless

you read the food label. In the US it must be listed on the label by

law, but sometimes things sneak by, and you can't tell when eating

out.

It is known to cause asthma, eczema and hives (my reaction), and is

also implicated in attention deficit disorder, hyperactivity, and

behavior problems in children.

Here's a link where people wrote about their reactions:
