[Interesting] Top 5 Popular Children’s Snacks Made with Cancer Causing Petroleum Products

There are many cancer-causing petroleum products (petroleum is the ingredient that is used to make up oil and gas) that can be found in the snack foods for children.


Commonly used food dyes, such as Yellow 5, and Red 40 are made of petroleum and can be very harmful to the health. These toxic substances can cause hyperactivity, cancer (in animal studies), and allergic reactions.

Artificial food coloring is also associated with ear infections, headaches, hypersensitivity, obesity, asthma, diabetes, eczema, mood swings, hyperactivity, sleep disturbances, ADD/ADHD, chromosomal damage, and hives. That’s why the European Union has decided to end the use of dyes throughout the whole Europe.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE SNACK FOODS THAT CONTAIN PETROLEUM PRODUCTS!


POP TARTS

These toaster pastries are being manufactured ever since 1964. The Frosted Strawberry flavor has corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, and dextrose, which are forms of very harmful sugar. Pop Tarts also contains cancer-causing artificial colors.




FRUIT SNACKS

Fruit snacks are full of artificial additives and colors. The most commonly used food color is Red 3 (also known as E127) which is a petroleum product.
