What needs attention
- DoubtfulE627 · Disodium guanylate
Usually made from yeast or fermentation, but guanylates have also been made from fish or meat, and the pack does not say which. Same doubt as the inosinates (E630 to E635). Doubtful unless the product is vegan, vegetarian or halal-certified.
- DoubtfulE631 · Disodium inosinate
Can be made from meat (including pork) or fish. Halal if the product is vegan/vegetarian-labelled or certified.
- DoubtfulFlavourings
The word "flavouring" does not say what a flavour is made from or dissolved in. Most are plant-based or synthetic, but some are carried in alcohol or glycerol of unstated source, and a few contain animal ingredients. Doubtful unless the pack says plant-based or alcohol-free, or shows a halal logo.
