BY Mamie Doris 2018-06-10Food additives refer to chemically synthesized or natural substances added to food for the purpose of improving food quality and color, aroma, and taste, as well as for the needs of antiseptic and processing techniques. At present, there are more than 20 types of food additives in my country, and more than 90 kinds of food additives in supermarkets contain additives. Without the use of food additives, biscuits, instant noodles and other foods will not exist. Food additives have become an indispensable part of the modern food industry. It can play a role in improving food quality, improving the sensory properties of food, preventing food spoilage, prolonging the shelf life of food, facilitating food processing and improving the utilization rate of raw materials.7
