So, what is maltodextrina de tapioca?
Maltodextrin from tapioca is a plant-based ingredient derived from cassava roots. It is a white, odorless powder that is easily digestible and has a slightly sweet taste. Maltodextrin is a complex carbohydrate that is commonly used as a food additive to improve texture, viscosity, and shelf life. It is also used as a thickener in many products such as desserts, soups, and sauces. Tapioca maltodextrin is a popular alternative to corn-based maltodextrin because it is gluten-free, non-GMO, and has a lower glycemic index. It is a versatile ingredient that adds bulk and stability to a wide range of food products.
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.
