Some produce looks so bright and colorful, you would think they were dyed.
What foods do you think that they put food coloring in to make them look better? Just fresh foods, not boxed.

To me yellow cauliflower looks dyed...have been so used to the more common white variety during my life.

Meat: most of the times they put red dye in it to make it look better.
Fruit (mostly apples, oranges, etc) sometimes there's a layer of wax on them to make them look shiny.

Salmon!!! If you see pretty pink salmon in the sea-food department, it is farm raised and dyed. Wild caught salmon is almost grayish... actually looks gross, but if MUCH better for you. I love salmon!!!

it has to be jello, because no one would eat it without the color!
