Have you ever wondered how many additives are actually in some foods? Then a visit to the additives museum is recommended.

What is actually contained in our food? The Museum of Additives explains everything about artificial additives, their functions, production, risks and side effects. In the exhibition of the Museum of Additives, you will learn about the different types of additives and their functions. You will also learn which everyday products actually contain additives and why. In addition, you will also find one or the other unusual supermarket shelf, instead of the finished food products, the additives of the respective products are sorted there. Another highlight is the additives checkout, by scanning the various food barcodes you can learn more about the different ingredients in a playful way. More detailed information about the exhibition in the museum can be found here.
