Food Category Details

Food Category Hierarchy

Liquid whey and whey products, excluding whey cheeses (01.8.1)

Description:
Whey is the fluid separated from the curd after coagulation of milk, cream, skimmed milk or buttermilk with milk coagulating enzymes during the manufacture of cheese, casein or similar products. Acid whey is obtained after the coagulation of milk, cream, skimmed milk or buttermilk, mainly with acids of the type used for the manufacture of fresh cheese.1

This page provides information on the food additive provisions that are acceptable for use in foods conforming to the food category.
