The Following Ingredients: Glycerin

Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a simple sugar alcohol. It can be made from plant oils, animal fats, or petroleum. It is a clear, colorless, odorless, and viscous liquid.

Manufacturers use glycerin as a humectant to keep foods moist, a solvent for flavors and colors, and a sweetener. It adds body to beverages and liqueurs and can help preserve foods. It is found in baked goods, candies, frostings, and processed meats.

Glycerin is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is metabolized differently than sugar and does not significantly impact blood glucose levels. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated glycerin and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.
