Why can’t they just simply not use added colours in the first place??? Does it not contain enough strawberry to look real?

I hope they don’t use any kind of food coloring. I have made tons of smoothies and have never needed food coloring. It has always come out a brilliant fruit color and stayed that way. Artificial flavors and colors should be banned. Kids don’t know what a real banana tastes like anymore.

@MST-MAC – “It is widely used for coloration in jams, preserves, meat, marinades, alcoholic drinks, bakery products, cookies, cheddar cheese and many other food products.” so if you eat or drink any of these products you are eating bug juice too, and still will be even after Starbucks doesn’t contain it anymore.!

Ha! I never drink Starbucks coffee, never visit them. But those of you who do? You were eating and drinking bug juice! Yuck. But don’t worry, eating bugs in other cultures is perfectly acceptable. Just like eating dog meat. Feel better?
