Investing.com -- Tyson Foods (NYSE:TSN), a leading meat company, is on track to remove all petroleum-based synthetic dyes from its production process by the end of May, according to CEO Donnie King. The statement was made on Monday during an earnings call.

The company has been actively changing the formulation of its products to eliminate these dyes. This reformulation affects most of Tyson Foods’ retail-branded products, including the popular Tyson chicken nuggets, which do not contain these types of dyes.

Tyson Foods’ commitment to remove petroleum-based synthetic dyes is part of its effort to improve the quality of its products. The company has not specified the exact date in May when the process will be completed. However, the goal is clear - by the end of May, the production process will no longer involve the use of these dyes.
