The ingredient in question azodicarbonamide, poses potential health risks, not only in and of itself, but in two of the substances created in it's breakdown, urethane, and semicarbazide. The use of azodicarbonamide as a food additive has been banned in the most of the world, with Canada and the U.S. being 2 exceptions among only 5 that still allow it's use. I would rather such additive not be present in the food I eat, and avoid it, along with stuff like BHT whenever possible, which is most of the time. It doesn't freak me out to the point where I COULDN'T eat food that contained it though. It's a lazy answer to a fairly complex issue, but I hope that will do.

There is always the chance that this specific poison counters other poisons in your food. Are you willing to take that risk?

I'm more concerned with the font in the post to the point that I re-typed it out. The only thing I copied and pasted was azodicarbonamide, yet it's peppered with different sized words throughout. As to your question: I never thought about that! I'll have to hunker down with a pack of cigarettes and some vodka and do some research on poisons counteracting other poisons.

 

The font thing happened again. Hmm.
