Is it true that they put bone in sugar?

No. A quick look at the packet in my kitchen cupboard describes the sugar as 'pure and natural' - no hint of 'Now with added bone'. Dec 15 02, 12:31 PM

E542 is bone phosphate, or bone powder. It is an anti-caking agent, used in cane sugar syrup,and I seem to remember icing sugar often has anti-caking agent, though there are other sorts.

Is it true that in Europe people put mayonaise on their french fies (chips)? Is it true that Henry Ford forgot to put reverse gear in the first car he made? I have heard that there was never actually a species of dinosaur called brontosaurus, that what they thought was a brontosaurus was actually put together with the skeleton of one species and the skull of another. Is this true? Are animal bones crushed and then put into sugar?
