Taste the toxin? Skittles sued for allegedly having ‘heightened levels’ of titanium dioxide.
Court documents claim the candy contains “heightened levels” of titanium dioxide, or TiO2. Though, Mars, Inc. said it is well aware of the chemical but says it follows the Food and Drug Administration’s guidelines.
Meanwhile in the U.S., the company is still using TiO2 and has not informed customers of possible implications, the lawsuit alleges.
