Unacceptable Additives

Like you, we are concerned about the safety and health impacts of all the nasties in a lot of modern food. That’s why we have developed a list of unacceptable additives that we have banned from GYG’s food. At GYG you won’t find many additives in our food, but when additives are necessary we’ll explain why, and what they are.

Clean Food Timeline

Since 2016 we have been reviewing our menu to ensure that every ingredient in our food is totally Clean. Alongside our amazing suppliers, this has meant tireless work updating some of our most iconic products like tortillas, cheese and marinades to eliminate ingredients that didn’t meet our strict criteria.

Audit of All GYG Ingredients

A comprehensive ingredient audit was conducted by an independent nutritionist. Our unacceptable Additives list was developed and work began on transitioning to a 100% Clean food menu.
