These and certain vegetable colors such as annatto, turmeric, and beta-carotene(now also produced synthetically) have wide usage in butter and margarine, mustard and other condiments, candies, ice cream, cake toppings, beverages, and other products. The greater variety, coloring value, and stability of synthetic, as compared to natural, colors favor their use in processed foods.
