Food Additives

2.  Food additives are substances added to food to preserve
flavour or enhance its taste and appearance.
 There are about 3000 different food additives!
 Additives are important! Without them, hot dogs would
look grey, ice cream would form crystals, the oil and
vinegar in mayonnaise would separate, and bread would
get mouldy sooner.
 There are 2 main types of additives :
1. Natural
2. Artificial

3. 1. Salt (natural)
2. Sugar (natural)
3. Corn Syrup (natural)
4. Sodium benzoate (artificial, used to preserve
food longer by killing micro-organisms that spoil
food)
5. Caffeine (there is both natural and artificial
caffeine!)

4.  To improve flavour!
Not all foods are naturally tasty, so people add additives to
satisfy your taste buds!
 To preserve the food!
Some food can only be kept for a short time. Hence, we add
additives to help preserve the food for a longer time.

5.  The answer is NO.
 All of the additives have already been tested by the
authorities
 However, some additives may not be found to be
harmful until much later in the future, so just
remember that too much of something is never
good for you.
 If you don’t want your food to contain additives, try
organic food.
