I worked with an autistic kid for a couple years whose grandmother insisted that eating red dye made him very agitated. I didn’t really buy it but kept foods with red dye away from him. One day he got his hands on another kid’s food that had red dye and he went BONKERS for the next couple hours. So red dye making some kids act crazy is real.

Can’t have too many credible sources.
Inb4: the idiots see a source link and immediately downvote thinking I’m trying to debunk some folksy truth they want to believe over reality.This was unnecessarily antagonistic.
on your behalf? were you calling yourself out for being prickly?
Yeah. See comment history for context.
pass! but thank you. I thought I’d post a message to you instead of reading into post history and things like that. silly me.
All good, have a good one!
I had a friend in college who said it made her super hyper, so I believe it. She was responsible by that point being an adult and all, so she was quick to ask and avoid it.
Totally anecdotal, I’ve been getting respiratory issues and extreme tiredness from red and orange sodas. And that’s entirely reproducible. So I had to cut them out of my diet for good.
My four year old isnt allowed red dye, the few times he’s had candy with red dye have been the absolute worst meltdowns or bedtimes imaginable.
Had it, 30 minutes later loosing his mind.
I wonder how much of this is correlation with high sugar sauces/candies that just happen to have Red40 vs Red 40 actually causing it. Anecdotal only goes so far. That being said, get that shit outta here for good.
Mmm, yet again, America is right on time for my weekly “WTF!!!” moment. American horrors are starting to make a lot more sense…
random question, what is that chicken thing called? And can that doughy exterior somehow be recreated at home, ideally without several liters of oil??
“Sweet and Sour Chicken.”
I don’t know how to make it, but with the name I’m sure you can search for the method online
Nah sweet and sour chicken isn’t necessarily battered, it’s just the sauce
Yes, I’m aware, but that is also what the dish is called at most American Chinese takeout restaurants. Yes, you may have to add “+battered” to your “sweet and sour chicken” websearch, but I promise you doing so will absolutely get you to recipes for this dish.
sweet and sour sauce, but the thing you’re talking about are chicken balls
I’ve had a local place literally call them Chicken Balls.
I’m not sure if you’d want to Google for a recipe tbh.
Sweet and sour chicken balls. I buy boxes of em frozen, so freaking good to just pig out on
I’ve tried in an air fryer before, it wasn’t awesome. Definitely edible, but the dough never plumped up or whatever it’s called
