Food Travel USA with Elizabeth Dougherty Album: The TRUTH About Food and Travel 062325 Episode #: Original Broadcast Date: 06/23/2025 Major food companies are now falling in line with RFK Jr.’s demand to eliminate toxic dyes—especially Red Dye #3—from their products. The surprising part? They’re doing it voluntarily. From candy giants to snack brands, many are reformulating their ingredients in anticipation of a potential ban. This shift is fueled less by consumer pressure and more by a fear of lawsuits, negative press, and government scrutiny if Kennedy wins. But not everyone’s happy about it. Prominent Democrats and industry lobbyists are accusing Kennedy of fear-mongering and pseudo-science, despite mountains of global evidence showing cancer links. Elizabeth breaks it down: the science, the politics, and the raw hypocrisy. When Europe banned these dyes decades ago, America kept them. Now, the tide is turning, and it’s shaking the food industry to its core. In this segment, Elizabeth explains why the backlash says more about party loyalty than public safety—and what it means for your next grocery trip. FOOD TRAVEL USA FAST FACTS About the Show Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio.
