Green Minecraft Movie Milk Gets Its Color From Chemicals The Government Wants To ‘Eliminate’

TruMoo has launched a new product called "Vanilla Green Lowfat Milk," inspired by Minecraft and resembling a melted Shamrock Shake. The green color comes from petroleum-based dyes, specifically "Blue No. 1," which is under scrutiny by the FDA due to health concerns. The FDA plans to expedite the review of natural alternatives to synthetic dyes and aims to eliminate these colorings from food products in the U.S. by 2026. Creeper milk has gained popularity on social media, with fans sharing their experiences. TruMoo previously introduced themed beverages, including blue milk inspired by Star Wars. Upcoming film releases may affect the future of themed beverages, and recent cuts to FDA staffing could impact food safety checks.
