Worth a closer look
Smoke flavoringModerate concern
The EU withdrew approval for smoke flavorings because DNA-damage concerns couldn't be ruled out.
Consider limiting, or compare alternatives.
Caramel colorLimited concern
Some types contain 4-MEI, a possible carcinogen in animal studies; FDA sees no short-term risk at food levels.
Worth knowing; no urgent action implied.
Try instead
