By 20. January 2012Blog, Quality

The FSA in the UK has updated its list of products that are free from 6 food colourings (sunset yellow FCF (E110), quinoline yellow (E104), carmoisine (E122), allura red (E129), tartrazine (E102) and ponceau 4R (E124)) associated with hyperactivity in children.

The list was published to encourage the food industry to take part in the voluntary ban that was agreed by ministers in 2008. Two companies Clearspring Ltd and Redwood Wholefoods Ltd. have product lines that have recently been added to the list.
