What it is
Organic red chard is a leafy green vegetable, a variety of the species *Beta vulgaris*. It is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The leaves and stems are edible and have a slightly bitter, earthy flavor.
Why it's used
Red chard is primarily used as a fresh vegetable in salads, sautés, and other cooked dishes. Manufacturers may include it in packaged salad mixes or as a component in vegetable blends. Its vibrant red stems add color to food products.
Health notes
Red chard is a source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It is not an added ingredient in the typical sense but rather a whole food. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) generally recognizes leafy greens like chard as safe for consumption. International bodies like the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated nutrients found in vegetables, but not red chard specifically as an additive.
Allergen info
Red chard is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
