Colouring of foods is a common practice because the visual look of the food influences the sale of the food product. The Prevention of Food Adulteration (PFA) Act gives a list of permitted food colours which may be used in foods. But unfortunately, some caterers and vendors add non permitted colours which are not mentioned in this list. In fact these nonpermitted colours have proved to be toxic to human health.}, number={11}, journal={The Indian Journal of Nutrition and Dietetics}, author={Yadav, Sandhya and Ankleshwaria, Ninaz}, year={1991}, month={Nov.}, pages={314–317} }
