Artificial Dyes and the Deep Dark Truth!

Can you trust the FDA when it comes to artificial color additives???? Are they getting paid for staying blind to the facts? Should you trust them?

In summary: The Feingold Blue book has the following to say about Artificial colors (Please see link below):
Regulated by the FDA, artificial colors can be added to foods, drugs and cosmetics. The colors permitted in cosmetics and in medications can have twice the amount of lead contaminant as coloring permissible in foods. Artificial colorings continue to be listed as “Generally Recognized As Safe” despite studies showing the contrary.

"In 2002, more than 16 million pounds of color additives were certified by FDA inspectors.
The FDA receives a “user fee” from the manufacturer for each pound of food dye certified."

Why has the FDA ignored parent's testimonials about the how artificial dyes change their child's behavior for the worse. Why have they turned their backs on all of the outraged public who have witnessed it's effects? Why haven't they demanded more research and studies on neurotoxicity and put warning labels on foods containing these harmful additives?
