In America at least, most of the long and unrecognizable ingredients are definitely not good.

Food Dyes, Artificial sweeteners, syrups, oils, and caffeine additives are the particularly common bad apples you find in just about everything.

MSG is like the one scapegoat that is actually getting unneeded hate. Since it’s literally a healthier version of NaCl (salt).

But as far as the rest of the “unrecognizable chemicals”, most of the time you would be right to be wary of them.
