Lobbyists are trying to get legislation to ban the use of dye in foods, because it is unhealthy (I forget the diseases it can cause). Beautiful, yes; healthy, no.
I believe this piece was focusing on natural dyes (per trendland) which makes sense given the subject matter - blueberries, greens, saffron (not shown in these photos). While I agree that over-ingestion of artificial dyes can be harmful, consumption of natural dyes is unlikely to pose the same health risks. Thanks for the comment though! Certainly makes for an interesting discussion.
