There have been so many (serious) tv-documentaries about this. Our bodies are the mass-experiments. I remember something from about 20 years ago in Germany, mostly about buns, the stuff that is called 'sandwich', and more 'normal' bread.
It began with (then new) biotechnically produced enzymes, who's into that, and where.
Turned out Denmark is big into it, with corporations most of us have never heard of.
So that stuff goes in all the bread to give it desirable properties, texture, taste and longer shelf-life, not even in big amounts. And that's the crux. Because it can be so little, it isn't even mandatory to declare on the label. Nobody knows what that does to our bodies and their metabolisms longterm.
Aroma came from France mostly.
So they retraced the enzy- and aromatic stuff to Denmark and France, popped up in front of a big Polish bakery, and traced how the half/pre baken stuff moves frozen from there into our supermarkets, to be baken up in store, or being bagged, and brought home.
How will attribution to negative side-effects ever be possible? Instead of pointing to other stuff like black carbon, so2, countless VOCs, PFAs, PFOAs, PTFEs, whatever?
