Looks funny and tastes, especially for children. But it is precisely these that should be avoided. Because the colored jelly contains colorings worth considering. So-called azo dyes can disturb children’s attention and trigger allergies. This is reported by Business Insider magazine. This applies in particular to the dye Yellow Orange S E110. But the dyes E210, E102, E104, E122, and E129 can also be problematic for children.

Just like soft drinks, fruit nectars are also sugar bombs. The fruit content is never higher than 50 percent. The rest: aroma extracts, artificial preservatives, and a lot of sugar. Much better: if it says 100 percent direct juice!

Unfortunately, the spicy Asian ingredient that is served with sushi is not healthy at all. Because it contains horseradish and mustard powder, but also controversial azo dyes. One of them has now even been banned in Germany. It is tartrazine, which can cause allergies.
