What it is
Organic compatible alcohol is a type of ethanol, the same alcohol found in alcoholic beverages. It is produced through the fermentation of organic plant materials like corn or sugarcane. This process is carefully controlled to ensure it meets organic standards.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use organic compatible alcohol primarily as a solvent for natural flavors and extracts in organic foods. It helps to preserve the product and can also act as a humectant, which helps foods retain moisture. You'll find it in baked goods, desserts, and some packaged fruits and vegetables.
Health notes
Organic compatible alcohol is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. In the quantities typically found in food, it is not associated with significant health concerns. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated alcohol and its use in food.
Allergen info
Organic compatible alcohol is not derived from any of the nine major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
