The thing is it might be smart. This change was actually spurred on by a petition to remove the colorings, which may have health impacts. Now, as I understand it, those health effects are minor and occur in only a small segment of the population, but it's caused some concern. Granted, the self-proclaimed "Food Babe" is behind the petition, and a source of reliable health information she is not, to put it simply. So I hesitate to lend much credence to the health claim, having not read any articles from more reliable sources as of now. But it's also a possibly smart business for them regardless, as consumers are shifting to other products without artificial colorings for various reasons (good or not), and there are easily available alternatives.
