I dunno, I agree (God help me) with the Mail here - I mean we're not talking about feeding people who are starving here, in which case minor issues like that would probably be secondary to ensuring basic access to any kind of nutrition. "There is no suggestion that the chemical processing agents are at all unhealthy. They might even increase the safety of the fruit and veg by effectively sterilising them and killing any bugs." Bugs introduced when foods are pre-processed and left standing about - in other words, bugs that arise as part of this specific product, and not as an everyday part those foods. There's no requirement in the human body for hydrogen peroxide either, and as an oxidising agent, I can see no benefit for these additives except helping McD's keep their profit margins in the "obscenely high" ratio.
