Not only does this plastic vegetable food come with reduced Saturated Fat.

But also, even better and substantially healthier, they have reduced methyl cellulose.

The E number of methyl cellulose as food additive is E461

Like cellulose, it is not digestible, non-toxic, and not an allergen.

Methyl cellulose does not occur naturally and is synthetically produced by heating cellulose with a caustic solution.

Methyl cellulose is occasionally added to hair shampoos, tooth pastes and liquid soaps, to generate their characteristic thick consistency.

In addition to culinary uses, it is used in arts and crafts such as papier-mâché and is often the main ingredient of wallpaper paste.

definitey need to go to the chemist and get some of this stuff.

dont think I want to try some chemically, plastic, fake, thats designed to look like meat, shite.

redefined!
