Why Arby’s Sourdough Bread Is Banned In Europe

Azodicarbonamide, as the FDA explains, is commonly used as “a whitening agent in cereal flour and as a dough conditioner in bread baking.” During bread making, azodicarbonamide breaks down into other chemicals, but the FDA has determined that humans are not exposed to high levels of these chemicals through eating bread products. So, the amount of azodicarbonamide you’d get in an Arby’s bacon, egg, and cheese croissant or sourdough breakfast sandwich is not enough to draw concern from the FDA.

The propylparaben found in the brioche buns and slider buns is often used as a preservative in foods, as well as drugs and cosmetics. Once again, though, the FDA has not taken issue with the use of this additive as long as it doesn’t exceed 0.1% in the food item. So, your Buffalo Chicken slider should be fairly safe to eat … says the U.S. government. The European government is another story.
