There is a new proposal to outlaw the sale of foods containing Red Dye No. 3, Titanium Dioxide, Potassium Bromate, Brominated Vegetable Oil, or Propyl Paraben in california. https://ktla.com/news/california/california-bill-could-ban-the-sale-of-skittles-hot-tamales-candy-and-more/ I find it EXTREMELY ironic that california has legal recreational weed but is considering outlawing candies. Not that weed causes cancer, it's just more that they allow something that is very much forbidden in some other states but yet they're going to regulate candy. I wonder if this actually would lead to companies removing these substances, or if they would just manufacture special california only candies. It's similar to California's Proposition 65 regulations that say things that are "known" to cause cancer or birth defects mist be labeled as such. How they determine this when almost everything seems to be linked to cancer anymore, I have no idea. It seems like everyone just ignores the labels anyway. Pretty hard to ignore if they completely remove the products from the market.

You're not allowed to use that dye in cosmetics because of the risk of cancer so it's probably a good idea not to ingest it, either.

I can’t wait until they legalize salt again. But it was good-natured because I was supposed to have been stabbed through the heart by the sword of Damascus, which they knew about. But they also pushed papers to let the guy who did it become my legal guardian, me being a 35 year old man at the time. Maybe now california franchises can salt my food again.

What’s wrong with titanium dioxide? They use titanium in implants and artificial hips and stuff, pretty sure it isn’t poisonous.

Sounds like they want to ban a specific color, OP, not candies. I suspect the Skittles company will persevere. Edit: Also, skittles suck.

Colonel Cancer posted:They're probably not wrong tbh cancer is mild and endemic in this society Because the California law says any increased chance of cancer is cancer causing and because most things cause cancer if they get inside you, we get the joke that everything in California needs labeled with the sticker. There's a subset of the joke for real hazcom aficionados that you shouldn't buy anything without a California cancer sticker because it means the the manufacturer willfully doesn't know what the thing is made out of so the contents can't be known to cause cancer.
