Something that is not a basic ingredient needed for the food or that would significantly enhance flavor, texture, etc. Maybe the natural flavor could stay, but I doubt anyone eating that ice-cream could tell whether or not they added the gum. An even better example would be in the "define healthy food" thread in which I mentioned the silicon and other "stuff" that Dominoes has in their pizza.

Not sure that those items significantly enhances flavors or textures - seems pretty nebulous.
Would not all toppings on pizza be an additive then?0 -

Or you could actually research why they put gum in ice cream. It's just a stabiliser. It helps with the texture. By adding natural gums, ice cream is less likely to melt and when it does melt, the fat and water don't break out of emulsion, so when the ice cream re-freezes it doesn't turn icy.0 -

Read the description given that I was responding to.
Also, it's called a conversation/discussion...something that you appear not to be able to grasp the concept of.

When I put whiskey into my coffee, it's an additive. I guess I'm going to die, but at least I'll die happy.0

I shudder to think what nutrition school/course is teaching people to do 80/10/10 (low protein) when cutting and paleo (high protein) when bulking.

Yeah, but even still, I've had homemade ice cream, and I think the difference in how long each one takes to melt is close to being negligible.MarziPanda95 wrote: »ForecasterJason wrote: »

Then by your definition, its not an additive.0 -

Totally agree with you on this one....0 -
On the back of bluebell ice cream just for an example. High fructose corn syrup, carrageenan, annatto color are all bad additives that cause health problems.0

What health problems?
You may want to check what those things are btw before you jump down the 'oh noes' its bad route.

Then don't eat that ice cream. Get a different ice cream.0 -
I thought the opposite; if each one takes about the same time to melt, there isn't really a purpose in adding the gum. So, it's really not significantly enhancing anything.ForecasterJason wrote: »

obviously it makes a difference or they wouldn't be making it the way they make it.
I made ice cream when I was 5 years old- put it in a coffee can and we kicked it around the school yard... seems like a horribly inefficient way to make ice cream- and it certainly wasn't as good as my turkey hill moose tracks.
Just because there is a more simple way to do something doesn't make it automatically better.
Riding a horse is simpler than building a car- but yet we all drive cars now a day because it's more efficient.
Picking up a log is more simple than adding weights to a barbell... but again- not as efficient.
so no- more simple =/= BETTER.
thank god.0
