What it is
Water is a clear, odorless, and tasteless liquid essential for life. It is a compound made of hydrogen and oxygen atoms. In food processing, water is often purified and sometimes treated to remove minerals before being used.
Why it's used
Water is used as a solvent, a base for liquids, and to hydrate dry ingredients in many packaged foods. It helps create the right texture and consistency, especially in canned goods, baked goods mixes, and pickled products.
Health notes
Water is not typically regulated as a food additive in the US, as it is considered a basic necessity. It is essential for human health and bodily functions. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not set specific limits for water as it is a fundamental component of food and drink.
