Additives
\"Additives\" is a broad, non-specific term referring to substances added to food to modify its properties, such as taste, appearance, shelf life, or texture. Examples include preservatives, colorants, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, and stabilizers. The safety and health impact of additives varies wildly depending on the specific compound. The lack of specificity in this label raises concerns regarding transparency and the possibility of including ingredients with potential health risks.
