What it is

Smoke flavor added is a liquid flavoring made by burning wood (like hickory or mesquite) and capturing the smoke. The smoke is then condensed and purified to create a liquid extract that can be added to foods.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add smoke flavor to give foods a smoky taste and aroma without traditional smoking methods. It is commonly used in processed meats like bacon, ham, and sausages, as well as in snacks, sauces, and cheeses.

Health notes

In the US, smoke flavorings are regulated by the FDA. Some smoke flavorings are considered GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe), while others are approved food additives. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated smoke flavorings. While generally considered safe at typical consumption levels, concerns have been raised about certain compounds found in smoke, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Research is ongoing to fully understand the long-term health effects.

Allergen info

Smoke flavor added is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
