Obviously a bit of an over reaction on the title, still it shows that they were not that worried in having a food additive in their drinks that might cause cancer.

The new recipe for caramel colouring in the drinks has less 4-methylimidazole - a chemical which California has added to its list of carcinogens.
Maybe the Governments should start looking a lot harder at what are in some of the foods we stuff into ourselves and our children more closely. We clearly can't rely on Private Enterprise to watch out for us.
