Yes. But this occurs because salt is soluble in water, in which the coloring is dissolved. The color is retained by the salt crystals when they dry.

Unless the food coloring has some active ingredient, it will not affect the salt water chemically. In the environment, adding excessive food coloring to water may reduce the amount of light available to plants living in the water. Otherwise the coloring itself is innocuous.


How long does it take the celery to absorb food coloring?

It depends on how much food coloring you are trying to absorb, and how big the celery is. If you have a small stick of celery and a lot of food coloring, it will most likely take about a week or so for the celery to completely absorb the food coloring. When the color of the water and the color of the celery switch places, it is fully absorbed. I will be doing this experiment myself to see how long in days, minutes, and seconds it takes, but if you have any more questions, try it!
