Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced a ban on petroleum-based artificial food dyes.

65% of Americans support such a ban, according to a Yahoo News/YouGov poll.

We wanted to see if people could actually tell whether a food item contained artificial dyes or not.

Dyes have been banned in Canada , California public schools and, now, the United States generally.

Studies have suggested a link between behavioral disruptions and problems, including ADHD.
