Illinois proposes to ban brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, propylparaben, red dye No.3 and titanium dioxide

Introduced by Sen. Willie Preston, D-Chicago, the Illinois Food Safety Act (SB 2637) would ban brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, propylparaben, red dye No.3 and titanium dioxide from retail food products -- potentially making it the strictest food additive ban in the country next to California’s Food Safety Act, which excluded titanium dioxide.
