the chopsticks turned the water yellow because of excessive amounts of sulfur left in them. Companies used the sulfur to whiten the chopsticks and used to much. Because excessive amounts of sulfur dioxide over extended periods of time can cause damage to the human body, many people where upset.

The pollution created by these disposable tableware products are raising awareness of the harmful toxins to the people in China. Many citizens want more restrictions on the factories making these products to help the environment and society's overall health. The picture of the yellow water was quite startling because you wouldn't expect that a few chopsticks could turn plain water that color in only a few minutes.

I think that the water turning yellow is a natural cause of sulfur but is it because of to much sulfur? If it is because of to much sulfur, is the sulfur causing harm to the people using them? China needs to put an investigation on to make sure its people are not being harmed due to chopsticks.
