Hidden Ingredients

Date: May 22, 2008 12:08PM As far as I know, the only time when a product does not need to list an ingredient is when the ingredient is used to say "line" or "dust" the insides of the product's container. My understanding of this is that if a company wants to add unlisted preservatives to a food item, they may do this by dusting the inside of the food item's container as opposed to adding the preservative to the food.
Is this the only case i have to watch out for or are there other ways companies can get around to adding hidden ingredients? Re: Hidden Ingredients

you can avoid it all by only using food in it's whole, natural state. that's the only way to know for sure, though even then sometimes food is bathed or coated in something mysterious. Re: Hidden Ingredients

Date: May 22, 2008 09:21PM Still, in their "natural state", some produce have hidden chemicals to them. Like non-organic oranges and apples are waxed with petroleum based wax... Organic ones aren't.
