Food Fact of the Day.

.

At one time, the addition of chalk to bread was officially recognised as adulteration and banned by law: today, in the name of fortification, it is mandatory in almost all. Due to labelling law, customers are unable to know what additives have been used in the production of in-store bakery loaves unless they ask.

... Ew?

Fact taken from a larger article exploring the quality of Supermarket bread by the Real Food Campaign (www.sustainweb.org.uk) and is supported by online deli Natoora (www.natoora.co.uk)
