So, what is bone ash?
Bone ash is a fine white powder made by burning bones at high temperatures. It is a natural and organic source of calcium, phosphorus, and other trace minerals. Bone ash has a long history of use in various industries, from the production of ceramics and glass to the manufacturing of fertilizer and animal feed. In the culinary world, bone ash is sometimes used as an ingredient to help clarify liquids or to add a unique flavor profile. It is also a common ingredient in some types of cheese, providing the necessary calcium to aid in the cheese-making process. While bone ash is derived from animal bones, it is safe for consumption and approved for use in food by regulatory agencies.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
