Why is Hacendado Apple Cider Vinegar classified as a processed culinary ingredient (NOVA 2) and what additives does it contain?

It is made by fermenting apple juice into vinegar, a process that involves filtration and pasteurisation, which places it in the NOVA 2 category for processed culinary ingredients; the only additive listed is sulphur dioxide (E220), used as an antioxidant to maintain stability.

Is the sulphite (sulphur dioxide) in this vinegar a concern for people with sulphite allergies?

Yes, the product is labeled as containing sulphites and includes E220, which can trigger allergic reactions in sulphite-sensitive individuals, so they should avoid it.

Can this apple cider vinegar be used in vegan and vegetarian diets?

Yes, all ingredients, including the apple vinegar and the sulphur dioxide preservative, are plant-based, and the product is certified vegan and vegetarian.
