RFK Jr. faces down M&M’s
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may have finally met his match: the green M&M. Mars, which manufactures various popular candies including M&M’s recently announced it will be changing direction from its 2016 goal of removing "all artificial colors from its human food portfolio globally"... because Americans like their candy Red 40 red, rather than beet-red. The Health and Human Services Secretary has a plan to remove American children's spoons from their "toxic soups of synthetic chemicals." It's contingent on an "understanding" he has with major food companies that Americans don't want to be poisoned. Yet it seems his and the candy industry's mutual "understanding" is breaking down.
