I am unfamiliar with a few words on Rachels yogurt label. What are annatto, pectin, whey protein concentrate and agar?
Annatto is a natural colorant made from the seeds of a tropical tree. Pectin is a soluble fiber naturally found in most plants, used in food as a gelling agent and to enhance texture. Whey protein concentrate is created from nutrient-laden whey, and adds protein to Rachel’s yogurt. Agar, derived from plants, is a common vegetarian gelatin substitute. For more information see Rachel’s Glossary.
