Question:

Why is there aluminum in dry pancake mix?

the ingredient on the back says aluminum?also ..what is sodium benzoate?Is all this stuff that terrible for you? Or does it mean something else?

Answer:

The aluminum is in the baking powder. Very common but you can buy it without it, it is much healthier for you. Aluminum is correlated to Alzheimer's and ADD. Baked goods taste much better without the aluminum too. Benzoate of soda, a preservative that can alter your DNA. Not too good for you, no matter what the FDA may say about it. All told, if you are concerned for your health, keep to organic as much as possible and made from scratch too. Way too much junk is put in our food and health products.
i have no idea why aluminum would be in pancake mix, but i know for sure that sodium benzonate is a preservative and it is bad for you
