Is E240 Kosher?

Kosher all year around


Description: Formaldehyde (preservative)

Function: preservative

Rationale: Formaldehyde is a synthetic chemical with no kashrut concern (its restriction from food use is a toxicology/regulatory matter, not kashrut); blank value filled.

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.
