Gardetto's ingredients: what's banned overseas?

About Gardetto's

Gardetto's is a snack mix brand produced by General Mills, featuring a blend of rye chips, pretzels, and breadsticks with garlic and Italian seasoning. It is sold at US grocery chains, convenience stores, and mass retailers. The brand is particularly known for its rye chips, which are popular enough to be sold separately.

Common concerns with Gardetto's products

Gardetto's contains BHT in the packaging/product and uses enriched flour for most components. The seasoning blend includes natural and artificial flavors. Some varieties use disodium phosphate and MSG-related flavor enhancers. While not among the most heavily flagged snack products, the BHT and artificial flavor content are worth noting for consumers avoiding these additives.
