What the highlights mean

Could be animal- or plant-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.

A numbing, spicy Chinese sauce of salted chilli, soy sauce, Sichuan pepper and soybean paste.
