Is #f0f3b2 suitable for use as text on a white background?
No, #f0f3b2 should never be used for body text against a white or light background because it lacks sufficient contrast. It works best as a background color or a soft accent that supports darker, high-contrast elements within your design layout.

#f0f3b2 has a 1.15:1 contrast ratio on white and 18.16:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
