The company that makes popular products such as Oreos and Swedish Fish said Sept. 26 it is working to transition from artificial dyes to natural colors.

“For our limited number of products that contain synthetic colors, we are actively working on a transition to natural alternatives in line with changing consumer preferences and to continue to comply with local laws,” a spokesperson for Mondelez, the company, told The Epoch Times in an email.
