Is there a way to change the color of the grout on my kitchen floor?

I have remodeled a kitchen but did not want to pull up the tile flooring. Is there a product that I can buy to change the color of the grout? With all the chemicals in cleaners it has bleached in several places.

Yes. Check it out at Home Depot. It is a little time consuming but it looks great.
I was quite happy with the color of the grout in my kitchen, however, there were a few areas that were badly stained and no matter what I did, the stains remained. I simply bought a few bottles of inexpensive acrylic craft paint (dollar stores or hobby stores) and mixed two colors together (in a foil plate) then painted the stains with a small artist-type brush. As I painted the grout, I kept a clean damp rag handy to wipe off any paint that accidentally landed on the tile as my hand wobbled now and then. lol!
The color I mixed blends in perfectly with the surrounding grout color and has stood up just great now for two years! The area gets constant use and weekly (wet) Swiffer cleaning. I'm really pleased!!
So, I'd say: "go for it"!! Find a color you like, be VERY sure of your choice - in other words, ask yourself: "am I going to tire of it in five years" and then proceed!
