This is way too easy.

He's ridiculous.. Blue dye #1 was used in Smarties for years. Never heard of anyone die from eating blue smarties.

Blue dye #1 was removed from smarties >10 years ago due to health concerns. Anything else you'd like to add in order to bolster my case?



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smarties

In 2006 it was announced that Nestlé were removing all artificial colourings from Smarties in the United Kingdom, owing to consumer concerns about the effect of chemical dyes on children's health.[10] Nestlé decided to replace all synthetic dyes with natural ones, but, unable to source a natural blue dye, removed blue Smarties from circulation (which led to the common misbelief that blue Smarties triggered hyperactivity in some children) and replaced them with white ones.[11] White Smarties were replaced by blue Smarties in the United Kingdom in February 2008, using a natural blue dye derived from the cyanobacterium spirulina.[12]

Artificial colouring was removed from Smarties on the Canadian market in March 2009. The new range included all the colours except blue. Blue Smarties were re-added in May 2010.[13]
