Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s push to eliminate synthetic dyes from the US food supply gained more steam on Wednesday with Nestlé SA and Conagra Brands Inc. announcing separately that they will cut the additives in the future.

Nestlé will remove the dyes from their US portfolio by mid-2026, according to a statement. The company said in an email that less than 10% of its US products contain the dyes.
