Natural Flavourings

[VickiKat]

Hi, so does anyone know what natural flavourings are? I try to feed my children healthily but everything seems to have natural flavourings - my husband says companies will never tell you what they are. Are they good or bad - I assume bad, grrr. My son is dairy intolerant so I give him vegan cheese but again, natural flavourings....any ideas? Thanks x

The clue is in the name - natural. These are, or should be, naturally derived flavours ie they are from plants/natural sources.

Things like E numbers are the synthetic additives.

Some do try to mask themselves as natural so it does take a bit of getting used to.
