[quote=Anonymous]It is the food coloring and also many preservatives! I agree with OP 100%. I try to avoid all food coloring and other crazy chemicals for my kids. It is an uphill battle. My DH does not agree that these types of chemicals cause bad behavior, but I have been home with my three kids for several years now and I have witnessed this first hand. Also, the teachers and playground monitors and grandma give out the fake food all the time too. I say - give her some all natural gummy substitutes. Tell her - give the child chocolate or homemade cookies or cheese, etc. Anything but the fake food that is filled with chemicals. I am not a nut. I am not gluten free or any of that, but studies have shown a like between hyperactivity and food coloring and preservatives like BHT. I make my kids' regular lunches (sandwiches, chips, etc.) but I avoid soda and gross fake candy. [/quote]
