Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. gives you a bold ultimatum: get rid of artificial dyes in your food or government will be involved.

Kennedy has his sights set on artificial food dyes that have some seriously harmful effects.

This ultimatum could significantly impact food companies. Reformulating products might be costly and challenging.

Kennedy’s effort has generated support and pushback.

Food reform will evolve in one of several ways. Firms that comply with Kennedy's demands could do so voluntarily to avoid regulations.

Kennedy's ultimatum represents a pivotal point in food safety discussions.

As dialogue around food safety evolves, consumers hold the power to demand change.
