Let's take a closer look at what is in the frozen pizzas you ate. You will choose one label from the frozen pizza assignment that you just completed.

Take a picture of the label and include it in your submitted document.

Begin by highlighting every ingredient that you don't recognize and/or is not a food.  Foods are wheat, sugar, oil, etc.  Look up each of the highlighted ingredients and find out what it is, and why it’s in food. Write about how this ingredient functions and what its purpose is in the frozen pizza. Also, write down any other interesting information you can find.  Write about the ingredients in your own words. Make sure to include the information/links you used as references.
