This is basically a stopped clock happening to be right.

AIUI, there's ample evidence that (certain) artificial food dyes can cause various problems. I know that I have anecdotal evidence that they can—even in "blind" situations, where we didn't realize they were in the food until after having problems—cause things like headaches, lightheadedness, and other vague but unpleasant reactions.

I find it frustrating that, as another commenter said, it took an absolute nutter like RFK Jr to make this happen, and also that I have to give him credit for anything positive—but it's pretty clear that this specific thing is, indeed, positive.
