Sucroglyceride and the Shellfish Free Diet

Sucroglyceride, also known by its E number E474, is a type of emulsifier that helps blend ingredients like oil and water that would normally separate. It is chemically created by combining sugar (sucrose) with glycerol. This ingredient is found in many processed foods to improve texture and stability.
