What it is

Nonfat sour cream is a dairy product made by fermenting low-fat or skim milk with lactic acid bacteria. This process gives it a tangy flavor and a thick, creamy texture, similar to regular sour cream but with less fat.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use nonfat sour cream as a lower-fat alternative to regular sour cream in dips, dressings, and as a topping. Its creamy texture and tart flavor can enhance the taste and mouthfeel of various foods, including salads, baked potatoes, and savory dishes.

Health notes

Nonfat sour cream is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It provides protein and calcium, but also contains lactose, which can affect individuals with lactose intolerance. The World Health Organization (WHO) has not established a specific health risk associated with typical consumption levels of nonfat sour cream.

Allergen info

Nonfat sour cream is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
