So, what is bht added to preserve freshness?
BHT, also known as butylated hydroxytoluene, is an antioxidant food additive added to preserve the freshness of a wide range of food products, including oils, fats, baked goods, and snacks. It acts by inhibiting the oxidation of food, which can cause rancidity and spoilage. BHT is a synthetic compound that is chemically stable and has been approved by the FDA for use in food preservation. Despite concerns over its potential health effects, extensive research has shown that BHT is safe for consumption in small quantities. In addition to its use in food preservation, BHT is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
