Those CVS cereals average 10oz, so this comes out approximately the same.

I'll pay the extra $10 bucks, thanks. I'm just amazed that a chocolate flavored cereal that isn't the colorful, has that much food coloring in it.
You're ok with risking it on the flu which causes hundreds of thousands of respiratory-related deaths each year globally but are wondering about food coloring in unspecified amounts on this cereal? Most mass produced chocolate has some artificial coloring, some of which in extremely high doses (think ten boxes of this cereal a day) has shown to be harmful to rats and may potentially also be harmful to humans.

Buying cereal from Amazon is the definition of masochism. If you buy cereal now and a bowling ball next week, Amazon will move heaven and earth to make sure the bowling ball and cereal are in the same box with a single piece of folded brown paper between them.

Get vaccinated for COVID-19 and risk a future heart condition for $10? Sounds like a bargain. [img]https://i.slickdeals.net/images/smilies/emot-LMAO.gif[/img]

You should look up the Cleveland Clinic's study on the 2024-25 influenza vaccine effectiveness on over 53,000 of their employees. The study revealed flu vaccines increase infection risk by 26.9%.

As for artificial, petroleum based & synthetic food coloring, Americans have increased their consumption by 500% over the last 5 decades. Norway and Sweden have banned or greatly limited use of food coloring due to links to hyperactivity in children and cancer. The NIH did a study that showed DNA damage, colonic inflation and impacts on the microbiome in mice from Red #40. There's also European studies that show a possible connection to behavioral and health issues. Thankfully, Red #3 will be going away in 2027 and 3 new food colorings were recently approved from natural sources.

Of course, everyone has the freedom of choice to get as many vaccines as they wish or consume foods with artificial coloring. Just some people choose to avoid them. Thanks for the reply! Have a good day!
Thank you for bringing these points up. It's completely understandable why you'd have these concerns, as there's a lot of confusing and often conflicting information out there. It's really important to look at these issues closely.

Regarding the Cleveland Clinic flu vaccine study, it's a perfect example of how a preliminary finding can be misinterpreted. While the study did report that number, experts - and even the Cleveland Clinic itself - quickly pointed out that the conclusion was likely misleading. The study didn't account for the fact that vaccinated employees were simply 27% more likely to get tested for the flu, which skewed the results. Most importantly, the study didn't look at the primary goal of the flu vaccine: preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death. Broader data from the CDC for that same season confirmed the vaccine was indeed effective at keeping people out of the hospital.

On the other hand, your concerns about artificial food dyes are very much on point, and you are right about the science and the direction things are heading.
  • You're correct that consumption has increased dramatically over the past several decades.
  • The research you mentioned on Red #40 showing DNA damage and inflammation in mice is accurate.
  • You're also right about the European studies linking some dyes to hyperactivity in children, which led to mandatory warning labels in the EU.
  • And thankfully, you are correct that Red #3 is being banned nationwide in the U.S., with the ban taking effect in 2027 due to long-standing health concerns.
