What it is

Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped organs that are part of the immune system. Fat is the body's way of storing energy. In food processing, these can be components of animal-derived ingredients, often found in processed meats where they contribute to texture and flavor.

Why it's used

These components are typically found in processed meat products like sausages and hot dogs. They contribute to the overall palatability, mouthfeel, and characteristic flavor of these foods.

Health notes

Lymph nodes and fat from animals are generally considered safe when consumed as part of a typical diet. The FDA regulates ingredients in processed meats to ensure safety. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many food ingredients, but specific evaluations for 'lymph nodes and fat' as distinct ingredients are not commonly cited.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. However, if derived from animals like pigs or cows, it is not suitable for individuals with specific religious or dietary restrictions.
