That sounds entirely unenforceable. Flour is a thickening agent in some recipes.

But also... "propellants"?

Commonly used with things like nonstick sprays or whipcream or spray cheese.

Not gunpowder; but some of them are hydrocarbons or other things you wouldn't want in your food. Most of them are just like the same kinda reagents as vinegar and baking soda, just creating gasses so the can has pressure to push out the stuff.
