Subtle, but significant changes coming to In-N-Out's menu
- In-N-Out Burger announced in May 2025 it is removing artificial dyes from its strawberry shakes and pink lemonade and upgrading its ketchup recipe.
- These updates come in response to the FDA’s recent decision to gradually eliminate the use of synthetic dyes derived from petroleum in food products by the end of 2026, addressing ongoing health concerns associated with these additives.
- The FDA plans to phase out the dyes largely through voluntary industry cooperation and will revoke authorization for certain dyes no longer produced.
- Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Described artificial dyes as "poisonous compounds," while FDA Commissioner Marty Makary said removal efforts will mainly rely on voluntary industry action.
- In-N-Out’s changes reflect a broader shift in the food industry toward cleaner ingredients, aiming to provide higher-quality products amid evolving consumer and regulatory demands.
