Trust in the food industry is not exactly great. But are the findings in this video really that “shocking”?

Fact check: Lemonade contains dyes. It is understandable that consumers do not trust many foods. Some sites often report alarmistly about poisons in food. A video is now intended to demonstrate how simple methods can be used to determine that food has been manipulated.

Do these simple methods really do what they claim?

In the video, Mountain Dew lemonade is poured through a filter into a glass. The filter removes the dyes contained in the liquid, as can be seen in the screenshot above on the left.

Essentially, this is a repeat of the previous experiment of dipping a cloth in lemonade. Yes, drinks contain artificial colors, it’s not a “shocking secret.” The increased sugar content in such drinks is more harmful, which is why you should not consume liters of such drinks. Next to water, the dye is the least dangerous of all; it only serves to look good and is not harmful to health.

The claim “lemonade contains dyes” is true.

However, it is quite unsensational, especially since dyes are not considered to be harmful to health.
