What the heck is Pink Sauce and why should anyone not on TikTok care? Let us explain
LA TimesThis is not the Pink Sauce — that product comes in see-through plastic bottles with bright yellow lids. The Pink Sauce website lists the condiment’s main ingredients as honey, chili, garlic, sunflower seed oil and dragon fruit — a.k.a. “You are selling rotten sauce to people in the summer heat,” TikTok user Misha Curiel said in a video criticizing Pink Sauce last week. The Pink Sauce don’t contribute to your health.” But Pii was making sense: While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does approve drugs and some medical devices before they are released to the public as well as certain ingredients before they can be used in foods, it does not have pre-market approval for food products, according to the FDA website. So the fact that Pink Sauce at this point isn’t “FDA approved” means pretty much nothing.
