Natural Pomegranate Flavor

Natural pomegranate flavor is a proprietary blend of flavoring compounds derived from or made to resemble pomegranate, often using natural origin chemicals, solvents, and additives. It is highly processed and typically added to foods and beverages to impart a fruit-like flavor, but contains little to no actual pomegranate or its nutrients. Regulatory agencies such as the FDA consider 'natural flavors' generally recognized as safe (GRAS), but the disclosure of exact components is often lacking.
