06:29 AM EDT, 07/01/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Hershey (HSY) aims to remove synthetic dyes from its snack products by the end of 2027, Bloomberg News reported Tuesday, citing a company spokesperson.

"There is a patchwork of state regulations emerging that is creating confusion and will ultimately increase consumer costs," the spokesperson reportedly said. "Removing these colors is a natural next step in our program to ensure consumers have options to fit their lifestyle while maintaining trust and confidence in our products."

Hershey did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
