Talk:List of food additives

message: I think this article is a great idea, and would be happy to contribute. But it really needs to be something more than just an undifferentiated list of food additives to be considered encyclopedic. Some suggestions:
* Divide the additives into categories based on the list at the top.
* Add comments on the additive, describing where they are used and how.
* Add comments as to what the additives are composed of (you've done a bit of that).
And so on. I went through something similar in writing List of vegetable oils.
In short... this is a credible start, but it's got quite a ways to go yet. So... keep going! Waitak 11:15, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

message: There is long-standing precedence for alphabetical lists on Wikipedia.  The list now conforms to the standards set by and is consistent with other alphabetical lists on Wikipedia.  A link is also provided to create a new categorized list.  Note that the list is still under construction, but the structure is in place.  --Pantothenate 05:12, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Many additives have side effects if added in larger doses while preparing the dish. For example, any acid additive develops cold, to avoid that, Ammonium Chloride is used in small doses. If it is possible to add that information here, it would be good help to the users of these additives. Pathare Prabhu (talk) 13:23, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

message: IF it's okay with y'all, i was considering turning this list into a table, where you could sort it either alphabetically, or by category. Leostaley (talk) 05:52, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
