Food companies are insidious in their use of ultra-processed and potentially harmful ingredients in food that we think are good for us. After reading Ultra Processed People by Chris van Tulleken, I’m on a mission to avoid any thickeners, flavours and stabilisers (eg xanthum gum, emulsifiers, anti caking agents and anything with numbers).
Most of these are not real food, just food like substances with added flavour.
