E160b – Annatto (bixin, norbixin)
E160b (annatto, bixin, norbixin) is a natural orange-yellow colour used mainly in cheeses, spreads, and snacks. It is legally permitted in the EU and US, but rare allergic reactions and a lower ADI for norbixin mean some high-consumer scenarios, especially in children, can have a smaller safety margin.
