[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 538287, member: 5663"] Actually, a lot of processed white has blue in it (like marshmallows, ice cream isn't so processed). So pure white isn't always safe, kind of off white even fools you when they add yellow to make it look "natural" (as found on vanilla wafer cookies). The ones that get her the most are the reds, cheetos are apparently dripped in yellow (there is a website that states they start as gray, ew). husband gave her some gatorade when she was sick and I came home and her eyes were kind of jiggling. It's like meth to her! All of her worst freakouts have been caused by dye. She knows she can't have it, but has been kind of pushing it lately, taking snow cones at school or stealing gum from me, but will usually check herself if she knows she sneaked it. I don't think she thought about the cheetos because we never get them, but she does get natural cheetos like pirate booty or the stuff they sell in Whole Foods. Anybody dealing with behavior issues should really try to cut out the food dye first. It's really easy! A lot easier than the gluten-free, casein-free diets (I would starve). More and more companies are using natural things to dye the food, I'll be happy when they finally ban them. [/QUOTE]
