What it is
Spices are dried seeds, fruits, roots, bark, or vegetative substances primarily used for flavoring, coloring, or preserving food. They come from plants all over the world and are typically harvested, dried, and ground or left whole.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add spices to enhance the flavor and aroma of foods. They are used in a wide variety of products, including savory dishes, baked goods, beverages, and spice blends.
Health notes
Spices are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used for flavoring. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual spices. While generally considered safe in typical culinary amounts, some spices can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Research is ongoing into the potential health benefits of various spice compounds.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Some spices can be processed in facilities that also handle major allergens, so cross-contamination is possible.
