chris1234, Thanks for posting this important info. - not that I'd ever eat this stuff.

Sourcing high quality food is hard work but the rewards are great!

I use the tiny pocket book, The Chemical Maze. It lists info. on all food additives and cosmetic ingredients, with a simple visual guide to indicate if they are good or bad for y ou.

There is a website: www.thechemicalmaze.com

Be Well!
