Earlier this year, Tyson Foods said it removed petroleum-based synthetic dyes from its domestic branded products.

The removal of these ingredients is voluntary, as the ingredients are FDA approved.

“We continuously review and assess our product portfolio to ensure the highest quality products that meet the needs of consumers,” said Donnie King, President & CEO of Tyson Foods. “Our decision to remove high fructose corn syrup and other ingredients reflects our ongoing commitment to feeding the world like family, while preserving the taste, value and integrity that define our iconic brands.”

In recent years, the company has also been working to reduce sodium, sugars and other food additives.
