Cadbury to Remove Suspect Colorings

April 14, 2008: 12:00 AM EST
Cadbury Schweppes says it will remove all artificial colorings from its confectionery products by the end of the year. Artificial colorings have been in the news recently, particularly in Europe following the publication of the UK Southampton Study last year, which linked certain food colorings to hyperactivity in children. Nestle Rowntree pledged to remove colorings in 2005. More companies are now expected to follow suit. In Europe, 42 organizations have called for the Food Commission to suspend the use of the six colorings linked to hyperactivity in the Southampton study.
