Metanil yellow is a yellow azo dye. Due to its toxic effect on the liver, brain and reproductive organs, the use of metanil yellow in the food industry is not permitted. Despite its status, metanil yellow was found in 16.4% of the sampled food products in India. It was used to color bakery goods, cereals, beverages, candies, gelatin, and numerous other commodities. Metanil yellow is used as an adulterant for curcumin in the turmeric powder.
