The Beloved Pizza Rolls

Tortino's Pizza Rolls: a popular college student snack and meal. It goes without saying that they are a processed food made up of processed parts, but what exactly is in them? Here are just a few brow-raisers that are listed right on the back of the packaging of any pepperoni pizza rolls box or bag:

Titanium Dioxide
Zinc Oxide
Magnesium Oxide
Sodium Aluminum Phosphate
Potassium Chloride
Methylcellulose

I challenge you to type in any one of these ingredients in a search engine and just browse through what comes up. Simply, food shouldn't have ingredients in them that can also be used for make-up pigment (Titanium Dioxide).
