Consumer Demand and Awareness of a Changing Paradigm
In recent years, there has been a notable change in consumer tastes. Consumers who care about their health and the environment are increasingly looking for goods that support those ideals. Due to this, food safety and sustainability have become intertwined. Consumers of today want items that not only protect their safety but also address their environmental concerns.

The Rise of Natural Food Colors: A Comprehensive Exploration
Natural food colors are pigments derived from natural sources such as fruits, vegetables, plants, and minerals. They are widely used in the food and beverages industry by manufacturers to add color to food items or drinks. These natural food colors are available in liquid and powdered forms in the market. Food quality is evaluated on the basis of the color of the food. Food color does not always mean that the ingredients are organic, however, in a few cases, it refers to a lesser amount of ingredients used in it. The less ingredients added, the more natural the food product is. Thus, consumers demand natural and organic ingredients in food colors for a better lifestyle and to minimize the risk of diseases that are caused due to artificial food colors. Natural food colors are generally considered to be safer and healthier than synthetic food colors, which are made from chemicals. They are also more appealing to consumers who are looking for natural and clean-label products, thus creating a huge natural food colors market demand and food manufacturers are intensively capitalizing on new products development and technological advancements to cater to the demand.
