What it is

Natural smoking flavors are created by burning wood or other natural materials and then capturing the smoke. This process concentrates the compounds responsible for the smoky taste and aroma found in traditionally smoked foods.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add natural smoking flavors to provide a smoky taste without the traditional smoking process. They are often used in processed meats, snacks, sauces, and cheeses to impart a desirable smoky flavor profile.

Health notes

Natural smoking flavors are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated smoke flavorings, but do not set specific numerical limits. Research into the health effects of compounds found in smoke is ongoing, and while some compounds can be harmful at high levels, typical dietary exposure from these flavorings is considered safe.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Gluten-free status depends on the specific ingredients used in the flavoring process and potential cross-contamination.
