In a move that will no doubt save the world from the impending doom of artificial colors, the FDA has approved three "natural" food colorings. The list includes Galdieria extract blue, a color derived from a species of algae that's rumored to have superpowers, allowing it to turn anything it touches into a blue hue reminiscent of a sad Smurf. Butterfly pea flower extract is also on the list, which can magically change from blue to purple if you stare at it long enough with enough intent. And for a touch of earthy elegance, calcium phosphate now brings a dash of natural flair to chicken products, because who doesn't want to eat chicken that's been sprinkled with a bit of rock dust? The FDA's initiative to replace petroleum-based dyes continues, ensuring that by 2026, all food will be as colorful as a rainbow and as confusing as a chemistry lab.
