That's what I am most concerned about - I have the bottle sitting next to me and it is very very very orange, unhealthily so! Plus there isn't much English on the label so as far as I know it could contain the urine of unspecified animals! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

As Endjin says other non-EU countries are FAR less stict on what goes in drinks and foodstuffs. And yes they are breaking the law by selling it to you. How many take aways get away with it, is doing it as a meal deal. Pizza plus bottle = £10, then they can argue the pizza is £10 and the bottle is free. Then it is legal.

Just asked a colleague in Trad Standards and I believe as long as they can prove they have paid the relevant taxes on the import, they are not breaking the law
