Great. Maybe my doctors could see what the fuck is wrong with me.
But can they see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch!?
"Yeah so just, ya know, smear that crap all over my head and let's figure this out"
"We've decided the problem is you."
I'm female. The problem will be in my head.
Any bets on how long it takes before this becomes a fetish?

It has been for a while, just without the technology to back it up
The dye in question is tartrazine/Yellow 5
I like to look up stuff, even if I’m not remotely qualified to understand the results.
Tartrazine induces structural and functional aberrations and genotoxic effects in vivo
Is tartrazine really safe? In silico and ex vivo toxicological studies in human leukocytes: a question of dose
My (thin) grasp of things is that even though it’s a food additive, it’s not heavily studied, and not at higher doses, but the two studies above don’t paint a great picture. And slathering it on your skin is definitely more than you’d come into contact with than what’s needed to color food.
So, yeah - not a parlor trick I’d do to gross out my friends.
Time for my twoface cosplay
Doritos would be way cooler if they turned your finger tips transparent
I'm going to look like Slim Goodbody on nights and weekends.
Tartrazine is a synthetic lemon yellow azo dye primarily used as a food coloring. It is also known as E number E102, C.I. 19140, FD&C Yellow 5, Yellow 5 Lake, Acid Yellow 23, Food Yellow 4, and trisodium 1--4--5-pyrazolone-3-carboxylate. Tartrazine is a commonly used coloring agent all over the world, mainly for yellow, and can also be used with brilliant blue FCF or green S to produce various green shades.
This is going to be the sort of thing if you use it four or five times your skin melts off.
