This ingredient is actually more common than you’d think.
You might even have something that contains it in your kitchen already.
Products such as chocolate, gum, cooking oil and vinegar all contain dimethylpolysiloxane.
Their is also no evidence that suggests it’s not safe for us to consume.
And Wendy’s is not the only food chain that uses this chemical.
