For some reason alcoholic drinks don't have to list their ingredients, which is a problem if you have a bad reaction to one of the additives which may be used in a beer.[/quote:ddfy1dti]

and how about when their advertising says things that are not strictly true. From "nothing added but time" and such.

Or the Porterhouse's own 0% Chemicals.

No water, no ethanol, no carbon dioxide...

You're getting into semantics then. As you've already said, it's generally accepted that when people refer to chemicals added to food they are talking about artificial/unnatural additives.

I'm more vexed by Guinness's "traditionally brewed". But again, I suppose that's just a question of when you start the clock.

Carbon dioxide was first isolated in 1772 and nitrogran in the same year. Pumping these from a gas canister into a beer when serving it is adding a chemical by pretty much any definition.

in defense of semantics, it is concerned with what sentences [i:2i4v5zie]mean[/i:2i4v5zie]. that's pretty important when you're having a discussion!
