The Effects of Colorants Used in Hotel Kitchens in Terms of Child Health
Abstract
The occupancy rate of the hotels preferred by the families with children is also increasing with the opening of the tourism season. In particular, the use of artificial colorants should be controlled and reduced in such kitchens. In addition, natural colorants should be preferred to artificial colorants. These colorants can be readily purchased, as well as can be prepared in the kitchen. Thus, while the criteria for child-friendly tourism management are set, the commitment to use homemade and natural ones instead of ready-made and artificial ones, especially colouring materials used in children's menus should be regarded as a plus point for that business.
