The ugly truth about 'natural flavoring'

Quote
...So what is natural flavor, really? It’s an essential oil, or an essence, or a product of fermentation, or one of 3,000 chemical additives, or actually 100 different things vaguely related to food all conveniently (and anonymously) lumped together to form a cohesive taste reminiscent of a single real world flavor. Or, to put it another way, mostly just a lot of marketing speak.

Yes, the same over here, and they are mostly synthetic. They are compounds that are actually present in natural food and plants, but they are synthesized to obtain that specific taste or smell or 'flavor'.

Here's something else I learned about those good ol' natural flavors...

This one is really, *natural.*

"Castoreum"

It comes from a beavers sex organ between their genitals and anus.

Yup. We've all probably consumed some at one point in time. Cheers!
