Food Fact: An Emulsifier is a substance added to products, such as meat spreads, to prevent separation of product components to ensure consistency. Examples of these types of additives include lecithin, and mono- and di-glycerides. Emulsifiers allow a relatively permanent suspension of oils and fats in water (e.g. glyceryl monostearate or GMS, lecithin, monoglycerides, polysorbate 60 – used primarily in cakes and frostings).
