Aluminiumsilicate is an food additive to prevent that is sticks together.
In Europe it is known under the Number E559.
Its a parting agent used in Salt, chewing gum, soft cheese, rice, sausages and food that is dry and in powder form.

People that have problems with their kidneys should not eat too much of it, as the Aluminium can accumulate in their body.
