Is E290 Kosher?

Kosher, except for Pesach


Description: Carbon dioxide (acidity regulator)

Function: acidity regulator

Rationale: Kosher orgs (cRc/STAR-K) flag CO2 for carbonation as needing verification it wasn't produced from fermenting chametz/kitniyot grain for Passover use.

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.
