Subway to "eventually" stop using Azodicarbonamibe to make its bread

Representatives from Subway have confirmed in a response to an online petition that they will "eventually" stop using azodicarbonamide, a chemical found in yoga mats and shoe rubber, as an ingredient to make its signature breads.

 

Without going into further detail Subway released the following statement, "The complete conversion to have this product out of the bread will be done soon,"

 

Vani Hari, an activist who rallies against the use of chemical ingredients in the hopes of forcing companies to use healthier choices, began the petition which currently sits around 60,000 signatures. 

 

The chemical is also currently used only in the American markets with European and Australian chains barred from using it by their respective government agencies...... for obvious reasons.

Just curious here, when they're trying to sell me a footlong sandwich do they really mean somthing different?  :D

Hate to say it, but azodicarbonamide is used in quite a few products, especially bread based ones.  Hot dog and hamburger buns, sliced breads, bagels, many types of frozen meals, etc.  Unless you look at the ingredients list on things or grow your own stuff, you never know what you're eating now.

Oh yeah, absolutely this 100% Spawn. 

 

The only problem I have is how little we know about our actual food and what chemicals so really slip through into things.  Pretty interesting to see what's allowed here in the US and what is outright banned in other countries too.
