You would be surprised how many products in the US have wood pulp in them:

In defence of cellulose or wood pulp, I assume it is fairly inert and definitely less harmful than a lot of cheap fillers that were used in food in former times. Er.. and now..

Potassium Bromate:
A dough conditioner and bleaching agent. In 1993 the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended its removal from all foods. Banned in many countries but still used in the USA
Health effects: A carcinogen and mutagen. Lead to kidney, stomach, and thyroid tumors in animal tests.
Used in: Bread, white flour, fast food buns such as Burger King, Wendy's, and Arby's
