Mac and cheese

Prohibited in: Norway, Austria and the European Union
Reason: Harmful colorants

One of the most popular children’s meals in North America is mac and cheese. This is not the homemade, oven-baked version, but the one that comes from the package with powdered cheese and instructions on the back on how to properly prepare the meal. This dish with few ingredients is easy to prepare and is popular with children (outside France) with ketchup. Packaged Mac and Cheese is produced in the European Union, Austria and Norway due to the use of a colorant that is harmful to children. To ensure sales in Europe, the Kraft Heinz company has recently removed Yellow 5 and Yellow 6 coloring from its European Mac & Cheese products.
