What the hell is natural flavoring? Rattle snake venom could be considered natural because it came from a wild animal!

Meaning that it came from the source product. Natural garlic flavoring comes from garlic, whereas an artificial flavor is the result of some chem cocktail. Grapes are a monster to work when they're anything but super fresh which is why you don't see natural grape flavoring and why everything we accept as grape flavoring doesn't actually taste like grape.

"Made with real hydrocarbons!"
Aside from rocks and water basically everything on earth is natural and made out of hydrocarbons. Doesn't really say anything at all when "natural flavoring" is listed as an ingredient when it could be billions of different chemicals.

It means it's a naturally occurring compound found in food. Artificial flavors are flavor compounds not derived from food, like those that come from bugs. An artificial flavor can also be chemically synthesized but this is not often the case; some things like lemon artificial flavoring are extremely cheap to produce, but most actually aren't. This is the reason you see orange, lemon, and grape as the basic bitch flavors of any candy assortment: not because anyone likes them, just because they're cheap.

>According to the United States Food and Drug Administration:
>"The term natural flavor or natural flavoring means the essential oil, oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof, whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional."

A natural flavor does not have to come from the item it is mimicking. For example, natural pear flavor is probably mostly apple.

Here is more information for you.

natural flavoring tends to be a loop hole to keep hidden a combination of proprietary flavorings that make the product unique, as opposed to any other brand in the market.

There was a huge thing that happened with that Naked Juice company for having the words

"natural flavorings" from their ingredient list, and many people who are actually health conscious put the company on the spot, and now, apparently they removed the "natural" ad on their product label.
