Anti-foaming Agent

An antifoaming agent is a food ingredient intended to curb effusion or effervescence in preparation or serving. Antifoaming agents are included in a variety of foods such as Diet Coke, Sprite, and Chicken McNuggets in the form of dimethylpolysiloxane. Antifoaming agents are also used medicinally to relieve bloating, because they cause small bubbles to coalesce into large bubbles, which are passed more easily. A familiar example is the drug Simethicone, which is the active ingredient in drugs such as Gas-X. See Ingredients for McDonalds Foodsfor common examples of antifoaming agents in commonly served foods.
