The safest bet is cooking from scratch using organic produce as often as possible. Take care. Hi George,

I’m not familiar with UK food regulations, but here in Australia we have the same problem, only the percentage is higher: it’s 5% (see under heading But wait, there is more! – 5% Loophole).

The safest bet is cooking from scratch using organic produce as often as possible.

Take care.

But is seems the food industry is long ahead of us, I've been reading that in UK the law says a food producer is not required to write an additive on the label if it's less that 2%. Does anyone know if this is correct? I as well read the label before buying a product, and I don’t buy if it contains additives.

I come from the UK myself and as you may know there are restrictions in the UK particularly on food colorings. I moved to the USA and was horrified to see the brightly colored dyed foods here. They are not restricting them it seems?! Anyway I re tweeted this on twitter and hopefully spread the word a little. Just as an aside the comment you received from Maria is a from a spammer. I recognized the same on my blog. If you check the IP on Stop Forum Spam you'll know for sure. I've found the site really useful. Take care This is good information, and a nice blog.
