Is Vinyl Acetate Corn Free?

Vinyl Acetate and the Corn Free Diet
Vinyl acetate is a synthetic chemical compound commonly used in the production of polyvinyl acetate and other polymers. These polymers are then used in products like adhesives, coatings, and paints. Its use in food products is extremely rare, and it is primarily a concern when used as a food contact substance, which can sometimes be derived from corn-based materials.
