Food Coloring reagents!
#1
Lightbulb 
okay, so here's the thing
i like being a chef! i love making my food look COOL!
so: i introduce to you, Food Colors!
a set of reagents, each identical, but with a simple color each (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, brown, black, white). They have two different uses!
When used in frosting / sauce, will behave normally, and make the food heal slightly more when eaten! Good for properly coloring your donuts or make a pizza that looks like charcoal (with phlogiston in it, of course).
When injected into foods, will instantly remove itself and tint the food to its color, like paint but to a stronger degree, based on how much is added.
There are two ways of obtaining food coloring:
Making it via chem & science (presumably a delayed reaction that lets you select the color via temperature, around a minute to do so)
(optional, probably a hassle to make) a special Food Coloring dispenser, orderable by QM for a somewhat large price. (~3k?) This can make every color of food coloring on a whim, similiar to a chem dispenser, albeit looking different. good for mixing & matching colors, to make shades or just a color the standard set doesn't quite reach.
make more robust donuts for security that look like The Real Dealâ„¢ and leave them questioning whether you stole them or made them yourself! make green pizza bases for no apparent reason! make your cheese Purple!

alternative uses are still there, you can use them to make a suspiciously acid-colored mixture look less like acid and more like something people might drink without a second thought (until they feel their throat corroding, that is)

why not just use existing reagent colors and make more of them colorful

Well for a food coloring reagent, you would probably want it to be more heavily weighted for that reagent color than the alternatives. So make 5 units appear like they make up 25 units in the container. Or maybe just have them be more saturated?

yeah, that's what i was thinking
a type of chem that influences the mix's color more than others do would be neat for some stuff

Cyanide is such a lovely shade of blue
