Fast Green FCF, also called Food green 3, FD&C Green No. 3, Green 1724, Solid Green FCF, and C.I. 42053, is a sea green triarylmethane food dye. Its E number is E143.

Fast Green FCF is often used as a replacement of Light Green SF yellowish in Masson's trichrome, as its colour is more brilliant and less likely to fade.
