The food we eat

The list of non-nutrients discovered on the back of a packet of Pretzel Twists BBQ flavour since there were no plain ones available ... just a reminder to myself of you are what you eat.

Wheat flour, vegetable oil with antioxidant (TBHQ), glucose, yeast, sugar, salt, maize, permitted colourants (E150, E124, E110), emulsifier (E1450), monosodium glutamate, (E621), flavour enhancers (E627, E631), herbs & spices (garlic and paprika - but where?), free flowing agent (E551), permitted flavourants (that instantly make you think of getting another packet), maltodextrin, acidifying agents (E330 - bad bad bad), soya, eggs (definitely not free range I would say...).
