A little while ago i spoke about the additives in a tin of Meatballs. I was shocked about the amount of stuff in the Meatballs. Today on a flight with British Airways i had a Chicken Sandwich. It looked ok and tasted ok but really it was a bit bland. I looked on the wrapper and i was shocked at the ingredients listed on the back. Just have a look at the list below.
Ingredients. 47% Chicken with herbs. (81% Chicken, water, potato starch, salt, acidifiers, E326/E262, dextrose, natural flavour, stabilizers, E451/E452/E407, parsley, carrot, potassium chloride, flavour, maize starch, antioxidant, E301, spicer, preservative, E250 ).
46% Bread, (Wheat flour, water, wheat bran, yeast, dry mil, components, bean flour, dextrose, wheat gluten, vegetable oil, (partly hardened). wheat grits, salt, sunflour seeds, barley malt flour, wheat flakes, rye flakes, oat flakes, line seed, sesame, emulsifier. E481, soy pieces, millet grains, rice flakes, millet, skimmed milk, milk protein, vegetable protein, lupine)
7% low fat margarine, (water, vegetable oils and fats, emulsifiers, E471/E476, natural flavouring, acidifier, E330, antioxident, E385 colour, E160a, vitamin A/D3/E),
Weight 70gr.
Could you believe all this is a sandwich. This is a reason why all i eat now is fresh foods and nothing in a box, tin or package. For a product that is meant to be eaten on the day it's made then do they really need all this crap in the food. I may contact British Airways as i am really not at all happy at what i found added into the food that i had to eat on my flight back from Lisbon. All i can say is Watch this space.
I make my own bread below is the list of ingredients i use, OK i don't have all the additives that allow you to use keep the bread for a week , i don't need to keep my bread as i use it in two days and then i make another. Dead easy.
400gm flour
6gm fresh yeast
1 table spoon sugar
1 Table spoon salt
280gm water
