What it is

Organic sour cream is a dairy product made by fermenting regular pasteurized cream with lactic acid bacteria. This process gives it a tangy flavor and thickens it. The 'organic' label means the cream comes from cows raised according to USDA organic standards, without certain pesticides or antibiotics.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add organic sour cream for its rich, creamy texture and tart flavor. It's commonly used as a topping for baked potatoes and chili, a base for dips and salad dressings, and an ingredient in baked goods like cakes and pastries.

Health notes

Organic sour cream is a source of calcium and protein. The FDA considers it Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) when used as intended. Like other dairy products, it contains lactose, which can affect individuals with lactose intolerance. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated dairy products.

Allergen info

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