Jami Callao advises avoiding ingredients like potassium bromate, high fructose corn syrup, and hydrogenated oil in store-bought bread as they pose health risks without enhancing quality.
Potassium bromate, while effective for dough rise and texture, is classified as a possible carcinogen. Its usage has been banned by several organizations and countries.
High-fructose corn syrup adds sweetness and shelf life to bread, but the USDA recommends limiting sugar intake to 10% of daily calories for better health.
Hydrogenated oil serves as a preservative in bread but like the other ingredients on Callao’s list, it has potential health implications that consumers should be wary of.
