This article is bullshit. Bromated flour is not a crucial ingredient. Journalism is dead.
If Passed, This New Flour Ban Might Change NYC's Bagels And Pizza Forever - The Takeout

Good on #NYC!

Wouldn't it be nice if all Americans didn't have to eat the equivalent of lead paint?

"Yet, the additive [Potassium bromate] has been *banned in Europe for more than 35 years* (!) and there's no doubt that in general, European bread is far superior, and cheaper, than American bread."

Everyone likes to dunk on Americans for not washing their bread. But actually, American bread contains azodicarbonamide and potassium bromate, so any germs die on contact

More wasting the taxes we pay. The only one cheating votes is the man who congratulated his former bromate for the "beautiful voting machines".

Coke recalled Dasani in Britain after discovering bottles there that contained high levels of bromate, a chemical that can increase the risks of cancer with enough long-term exposure. The recall comes after Dasani had been mocked in the British press as nothing more than overpriced tap water.

A looming ban on the additive potassium bromate may soon force thousands of pizzerias and bagel shops across New York to tweak their longtime recipes.

Other chemicals in our breads. No wonder a package of English muffins last for months Potassium bromate and azodicarbonamide (ADA) are two additives commonly used in U.S. bread that are banned in Europe due to potential health risks, including cancer.

Flour, salt, yeast, water and… potassium bromate?

American bread banned in Europe?One of the most contentious substances is potassium bromate, a flour improver used to increase dough strength and rise. Potassium bromate has been linked to cancer in animal studies, prompting its ban in the EU, the United Kingdom, Canada, and many other countries.

fucking bromate

The real reason they use it is it's cheaper. If you can't make a comparable pizza with unbromated flour (such as King Arthur's), I really think it's a skill issue. As for bagels, I hear they're still good in San Francisco, where it's been banned longer.
