Decades after a study found a link between Red dye no. 3 and cancer, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has ordered food and drug manufacturers to remove the colorant from their products.

The move comes as Robert Kennedy Jr. awaits confirmation hearings as President Trump’s pick for Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary—with a mandate to “Make America Healthy Again (MAHA).

The red dye was banned from cosmetics and non-oral medications 35-years ago after the study showed it caused cancer when eaten by rats in high doses. The dye, known as erythrosine, continued to be used in candies, snack foods and other grocery products despite the cancer link, as it remained approved for human consumption.
