Big Food Brands Ditch Artificial Ingredients by 2027
Bottom Line Up
Front President Trump’s crackdown on toxic food is finally hitting the shelves. Major brands—General Mills, Kraft, Heinz, In-N-Out, even McCormick—are scrubbing artificial dyes and swapping out seed oils under White House pressure. America First just cleaned out your pantry.
Counterpoint
Here’s the narrative from the usual suspects:
- “Corporations are voluntarily going clean because consumers demanded it.”
- “There’s no proof artificial dyes are unsafe.”
- “This is just health-washing from big brands.”
- And of course, “Trump has nothing to do with it.”
According to the media, companies woke up one morning and just decided to be better. Okay.
Facts Only
General Mills will eliminate all artificial dyes from cereals—including Trix and Cheerios—and school food products by end of 2027.
Kraft Heinz is scrubbing dyes from Jell-O, Capri Sun, Kool-Aid, and Crystal Light on the same timeline.
In-N-Out swapped Red 40 and Yellow 5 for beet juice and turmeric.
Steak ‘n Shake ditched vegetable oils for beef tallow—a throwback to pre-processed America.
McCormick pulling Red Dye No. 3 after research linked it to cancer in animal studies.
High fructose corn syrup is on the chopping block, replaced by real sugar.
That’s not theory. That’s happening. When? Now. Why? Because Trump’s FDA isn’t asleep anymore.
The America First View
This is what happens when Washington stops listening to lobbyists and starts listening to parents. It’s about time we stopped feeding kids lab garbage in their lunches.
Cereal, juice, fries—nothing should come with a side of chemical warnings. When Trump said he’d make America healthy again, this is what he meant. Not government mandates.
Just truth, transparency, and pressure where it counts. Your kids deserve food that doesn’t read like a science experiment. And your tax dollars shouldn’t fund junk pumped into school cafeterias.
What’s Next
Watch companies scramble to hit 2027 deadlines—or else. Trump’s FDA isn’t bluffing. Consumer brands are on notice: Either clean up your products, or get blasted in public.
Momentum is building. Expect more restaurants, snack brands, and even drink companies to announce reformulations by this fall. If Big Food wants to stay on the shelves in Trump’s America, they better stop coloring their profit margins with toxic dye.
