Ice Cream
Yes – we’re having a crack at ice cream now. Why be surprised? Nothing is sacred.
You will be very lucky to find a pure ice cream on the market – the best you can hope for is an organic option which minimises the use of artificial ingredients. A pure ice cream will include only natural products churned and frozen. Ice creams you find on the market are riddled with artificial preservatives, sweeteners, flavourings, acidity regulators and emulsifiers. Not good news.
Ideally you should avoid the following e-numbers: annatto (E160b), sunset yellow (E110) and carmoisine (E122) because they have been linked to a variety of ailments including asthma, rashes and hyperactivity; there is also a possibility of carcinogens being present.
So again, looking after your own personal interests should begin with the ingredients label, and not the price tag. Organic or nothing.
