Have you ever actualy tried to read the ingredients label on the food put on your dinner table? I have and still don't understand it. You might say.."Well nobody does." But I had 6 classes (2 standard and 4 advanced) in Chemistry in college and although I have a decent understanding of the "chemical composition" of the additives, I
have no clue what purpose they serve. Ah... but there is a very easy way to find out. Just add the "What Addivives?" app and you too can "audit" the additives. Some are extremely common and harmless, others are just scary. I won't give examples of additives, but let's just say that hot dogs are the least of your worries when compared to some sweets. Give it a shot and comment on what was the worst thing you found in the cubbard. Ignorance is bliss, but poisoning oneself on additives is crazy.
