Titanium Dioxide comes up in 3 chapters across 3 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from October 2021 to September 2024.
Food activist Vani Hari (The Food Babe) highlights the discrepancies between ingredients in American processed foods versus their European counterparts. Products like Skittles, Gatorade, and Doritos contain artificial dyes and chemicals in the U.S. that are banned or require warning labels in the UK and EU due to health concerns.
A lawsuit filed in California alleges that Skittles candy is unfit for human consumption due to high levels of titanium dioxide. The chemical is used as a white pigment in food and paint, and the plaintiff claims it is a known toxin. Mars Inc. maintains that its products comply with all current FDA regulations regarding food additives.
Paint Supply Chain Issues, Titanium Dioxide Shortage
Residential painters report massive shortages of paint products due to the 2021 Texas ice storm and supply issues with titanium dioxide from China. Additionally, manufacturing problems in Colombia have led to a shortage of "black tint," a critical base for many colors. Consumers are advised that Lowe's may have better stock than dedicated Sherwin-Williams stores due to specific supply quotas.
