HC Deb 27 November 1945 vol 416 c1290W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the Minister of Food if, in view of the new knowledge regarding the unexpected biological action of some products of microbiological growth, he is satisfied that the processes now used in the manufacture of ice cream, in which certain bacterial enzymes are used for preparing sweetening agents, are not dangerous to health.

Sir B. Smith

I am not aware of danger to health arising from sweetening agents used in ice cream. If the hon. Member will indicate in more detail what he has in mind, I will investigate the matter further.
