Botanicals Allowed in Flavors
All botanicals used in flavors must be approved for food use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Although it is not a comprehensive list, the following table provides the GRAS status of a number of botanical ingredients. Please be aware that the status of these products could change at any time. You can find comprehensive lists of approved ingredients in 21 CFR Parts 172.510, 182.10, and 182.20. The EAFUS list on the FDA Web site also lists botanicals.
