What the highlights mean

Could be animal- or plant-derived

  • ゲル化剤 gelling agent: Usually pectin or carrageenan (plant), but can be animal-derived.
  • 調味料(アミノ酸等) seasoning: Usually MSG and nucleotides fermented from sugarcane or starch. But a few amino acids and nucleotides allowed under this name come from animals (feathers, gelatin, fish), and the label doesn't say which were used.
  • 香料 flavouring: Flavourings can come from animal or plant sources.

Shrimp-ball-style imitation made from konjac and wheat fibre.
