As You Sow Crowdfunds to Finance Nano-Ingredient Testing

Advocacy organization As You Sow, which recently issued a report on nanomaterials in food, is continuing to test products for nano-scale ingredients and has conducted a crowdfunding campaign to finance the initiative. Further details about the report appear in Issue 470 of this Update. The organization apparently succeeded in raising the $6,000 needed to test Betty Crocker Whipped Frosting®, which purportedly contains the same coloring additive found in Dunkin’ Donuts, a product highlighted in the report.
