Is E161h Kosher?

Kosher all year around


Description: Zeaxanthin (food colouring)

Function: food colouring

Rationale: Zeaxanthin is predominantly extracted from marigold (Tagetes) petals commercially rather than corn, so no strong basis for a Passover/kitniyot flag; no non-kosher animal source involved.

If you don't see a status above, it does not mean the additive is not kosher automatically - it might just not be documented in our database yet.
