True enough, and I was interrupted while making my comment so I couldn't really specify; a ton of food additives were banned in the last 50 years, as well as a ton of other things (like the whole transfats thing). While I can't speak for the exact items in the image without having to do a ton of research, even things as minor as food dyes were changed in a ton of recipes.
