WE DID IT. READ the full press release: tinyurl.com/SynBioFoodDye![]()
GMO/Toxin Free USA forced a delay in the FDA's approval of Phytolon's Beetroot Red food dye, produced with Synthetic Biology (SynBio), an extreme form of genetic engineering. The dye would have been allowed into the food supply labeled "natural" and "no artificial colors." It's a real win—but it will only last if we can keep fighting.![]()
The FDA wrote, "As of March 20, 2026, the effective date of the final order published February 6, 2026 (91 FR 5295) is delayed indefinitely... We received a submission from GMO/Toxin Free USA containing objections that meet the conditions set forth in 21 CFR 12.22 to initiate a stay of the effective date of the final order."![]()
But the FDA hasn't changed its position on the "safety" of the synthetic dye. The next phase will require even more research and public advocacy to either keep unsafe and misleading products off the market or require them to bear truthful GMO labels. We need to know what we're eating.![]()
