Titanium Dioxide E171 has been used for many years in both human food and animal feed. The EU banned its use on food or feed in 2022. As of now the UK has not done the same, we paid a fortune for brexit and we are to stubborn to agree with the EU

So at the moment we can use it in England, Wales and Scotland but not Northern Ireland as they follow EU rules.

The grounds of the ban are debatable in scientific papers. Personally I am not sure boilies are used in volumes or are an exclusive diet for carp to be an issue on what was such a small % anyway.

Any bait company that sells in the EU, such as Nash, have to follow EU rules and won't want different products for UK and EU sales.

Yeah everything that is white, comes from titanium dioxide! No longer allowed in feeds hence why nash citrus is natural.

Jason (A Baits) did start doing Amber Attract a few years back through another roller.

Jason’s baits are very good, if the NB2 was still available but discontinued due to Ingredients I’d still be on it.

Is that because of Titanium Dioxide? Is there nothing else to make a white bait with?

White baits are going to be banned
Not sure when it’s happening or if it’s happened yet.
Hookbaits will be fine though

Nash Coconut Cream used to be a awesome bait. You might be able to pick some up somewhere.

Not sure if freezer bait will suit, but Paul Fowlers Magnum Baits, Winter Wonder is an amazing bait.

I'd avoid the Magnum whites. They're awful. Stick with the A Bait ones.

thanks for the replies.

Blakes - no longer do Snowberry

Dynamite/Richworth - No longer generally available (although odd bag can be found) - I used to love using Richworth White Chocolate (still have some pop ups) but want something available to use long term

Ill go for either A Bait or Quest i think to try
