<div class="imageCaption" style="min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">Petroleum Loops: fruit loops are delicious - and made from a product that's made out of the same stuff that makes gasoline</div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">European countries like Norway, Finland, France and Austria all have banned at least one variation of petroleum-containing food coloring.</div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">Another common additive banned in other countries but allowed in the U.S. is Olestra, which essentially is a fat substitute found in products that traditionally have actual fat.</div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">For example, low-fat potato chips like Ruffles Lite, Lays Wow and Pringles fat-free chips all contain Olestra - which is shown to cause the depletion of fat-soluble vitamins. Different brands of fat-free ice cream and mayonnaise at one time also contain the chemical.  </div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">Olestra has been banned in several countries, including the United Kingdom and Canada.</div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">In 2003, the FDA lifted a requirement forcing companies that use Olestra in their products to include a label warning consumers that the food their eating could cause 'cramps and diarrhea,' despite the fact that the agency received more than 20,000 reports of gastrointestinal complaints among olestra eaters.</div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px;">Do you like citrus drinks, like Mt.
