That's an American problem, I don't see sugar in my bread to make it sweet

Americans would be more upset about this than they are about the additives.

> laws to prevent food adulteration
I think we USED to have laws to do the same, but if they exist on the books they aren't being enforced. I suspect that almost nothing in American grocery stores is unadulterated.

@teknomunk @Waldbrand @Dicer The problem is the American food supply is highly centralized and requires food to be stable and not go bad for several weeks, which requires all kinds of chemical additives and preservatives to work. If the law was the same as it is in the EU, then Wonderbread would be fucked and bread making would have to be done at a more localized level with a dispersed distribution system since it would have to be freshly made. I would support this, but Neoliberalism hates this model.

@Dicer @LouisConde Germany has literal Laws that forbid unnecessary things from being added to bread

@Jens_Rasmussen @teknomunk @Dicer @Waldbrand Americans aren't really given the choice given the institutional interests involved
