Why is this cider vinegar classified as a processed culinary ingredient (NOVA 2) and what specific additives does it contain?

It receives a NOVA 2 rating because it is made by fermenting apple cider into vinegar and then undergoes further processing such as filtering, bottling, and the addition of a preservative; the only listed additive is potassium disulfite (E224), which acts as an antioxidant and antimicrobial agent.

Is the milk casein present in this cider vinegar a concern for dairy‑allergic consumers?

Yes. The ingredient list specifies that the cider vinegar contains milk casein, a dairy protein that can trigger allergic reactions in people with dairy allergies, so they should avoid this product.

Based on its ingredients, is this cider vinegar suitable for a vegan diet?

No. Although the vinegar itself is plant‑derived, the presence of milk casein makes the product non‑vegan and unsuitable for those following a vegan diet.
