Um, those are all natural ingredients, caramel color is heated sugar,
annato is extracted from the seeds of a plant... you've eaten some
caramel color and annato extract every day of your miserable life...
your mama fed it to you from the cradle until you were able to use a
spoon on your own at age 12... and Bruthie the Drooler still needs to
wear a bib.

Xanthan gum is derived from common foods; corn, wheat, dairy, or soy.
