  • Ammonia caramel (E150C)Moderate

    Caramel colour class III; may contain 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), an animal carcinogen.

  • Monosodium glutamate (MSG) (E621)Moderate

    Flavour enhancer; self-reported intolerance ('MSG symptom complex'); EFSA flagged exposure above the group ADI.

  • Aspartame (E951)Moderate

    Sweetener; classified as possibly carcinogenic, though the evidence is contested and intake-dependent.

  • Sodium phosphates (E339)Low

    Inorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.

  • Disodium guanylate (E627)Low

    Ribonucleotide flavour enhancer typically used together with monosodium glutamate (E621); may contribute to symptoms reported by glutamate-sensitive individuals.

  • Disodium inosinate (E631)Low

    Ribonucleotide flavour enhancer typically used together with monosodium glutamate (E621); may contribute to symptoms reported by glutamate-sensitive individuals.
