Many food additives have long complex names, sometimes abbreviated, some with more than one name and a few including Greek letters.

The food additives list can be confusing so, to help reduce this confusion, each food additvie is given a short code number.

When considering allergies and dietary requirements for your clients at camp, it is helpful to know what these food additive codes stand for.

Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) provide a Food Additives List in both alphabetical and numeric format which may be downloaded from their website.
