What is the purpose of the emulsifier in ice cream?
Examples: sorbitan and polyglycerol esters, monodiglycerides
What does emulsifier 476 consists of?
Its chemical name is Polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR), or E476. PGRP is a yellowish, viscous liquid, and is strongly lipophilic: it is soluble in fats and oils and insoluble in water and ethanol. It is made up of a short chain of glycerol molecules connected by ether bonds, with ricinoleic acid side chains connected by ester bonds. E476 is an emulsifier made from glycerol and fatty acids (usually from castor bean, but also from soybean oil). In chocolate industry, to make compound chocolate and similar coatings, PGPR is mainly used with another substance like lecithin to reduce viscosity. It can also be used as an emulsifier in spreads and in salad dressings, or to improve the texture of baked goods.

What is polyricinoleate and why is it in chocolates?
Polyglycerol polyricinate (PGPR) is a yellowish, viscous liquid composed of polyglycerol esters of polycondensed fatty acids from castor oil. It may also be polyglycerol esters of dimerized fatty acids of soya bean oil. It is an emulsifier used in chocolate, especially in Hershey's and Nestle chocolates. It is used to reduce the fat content of the chocolate. It is also used as a replacement for cocoa butter, which is an expensive raw material for chocolate manufacturers. Using PGPR instead of cocoa butter is a lot cheaper for chocolate manufacturers; PGPR is primarily used in cheaper chocolates.
What is PGPR?
Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate (PGPR), E476, is an emulsifier used in the making of chocolate. It is made from castor beans which help reduce the viscosity of chocolate allowing it to flow more easily when melted.
What is contain of E476 in Cadbury chocolate?
Commercial chocolate manufacturers use this emulsifier, also called polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR) in the chemical form, as a cheaper replacement for cocoa butter in commercial-grade chocolate bars.
IS Polyglycerol polyricinoleatE SAFE TO EAT?
Yes it is. Just, like Play D'oh, it's non-toxic and won't kill you soon enough to establish causality. It's has been added to chocolate bars in the last few years to replace cocoa butter, which is what makes chocolate, chocolate.
What are the dangers of polyglycerol polyricinoelane?
According to Wotzinurfood website: "There is a possible link to hyperactivity in children; and a concern that it might change offspring sex ratio. There is also a possible danger, that if consumed in high enough amounts, it could cause miscarriage, due to castor oil content. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. The product also causes Hepatomegaly in rats."
What are the ingredients in Nestle crunch bar?

Is E476 halal?
E471 is not haram if it is plant based. E471 can arrive from plant or animal. However, to know if it arrives from animal or plant, that is not easy as most of the time, the food product that we buy won't mention the source of E471. For more information, go to : http://www.veggieglobal.com/nutrition/non-vegetarian-food-additives.htm So, the conclusion here is, E471 can be halal, it can be haram. It all depends on its source. =)
List non vegetarian e numbers?
E Numbers are simply artificial food additives, like colourants, flavourants, antioxidants, preservatives, stabilisers, thickeners etc.Each of these additives is given a corresponding "E Number" that adheres to an international numbering system, so that their use in food can be regulated.There are literally thousands of them, and unfortunately they are not all free of animal products. As we know, it is not often that we are afforded clear, non-ambiguous labelling, indicating whether a product is suitable for consumption by Vegetarians and Vegans, which is fine, it's not too difficult to scan the ingredients on the packaging of the products one buys. But it is slightly more difficult to judge whether or not the additives contain animal products when they are listed by their E Numbers.Below is a list of E Numbers derived from animal products. In some instances, they may have been synthesised in labs, and may not be derived from actual animal products, but finding out where and how the additives in a particular product were manufactured is often difficult to do. Any E Numbers not listed, are generally considered safe for Vegetarian and/or Vegan consumption.E Numbers definitely containing animal products/derivatives:E120 - Cochineal (crushed scale of Dactylopius Coccus, a type of cactus beetle)E441 - Gelatine (animal hoof/skin)E542 - Bone PhosphateE631 - Disodium inosinate (fish derivative)E635 - Disodium ribonucleotidesE901 - BeeswaxE904 - Shellac (insect origin)E966 - Lactitol (milk derivative)E1105 - Lysozyme (found in egg whites)E Numbers possibly containing animal products/derivatives: (unfortunately it is not generally stated as to whether these additives are synthesised or derived from animal products, but it is fair to assume that in some cases they contain animal products)E104 - Quinoline YellowE160 - Alpha-, beta-, gamma caroteneE161 - CanthaxanthinE252 - Potassium NitrateE270 - Lactic AcidE304 - Ascorbyl PalmitateE304 - Ascorbyl StearateE322 - Lecithin (may be made from eggs)E325 - Sodium LactateE326 - Potassium LactateE327 - Calcium LactateE422 - Glycerol/GlycerinE(430 - 436) - PolyoxyethylenesE442 - Ammonium PhosphotidesE445 - Glycerol esters of wood resinE470(a) - Sodium, potassium and calcium salts of fatty acidsE470(b) - Magnesium salts of fatty acidsE471 - Mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(a) - Acetic acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(b) - Lactic acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(c) - Citric acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(d) - Tartaric acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(e) - Mono- and di-acetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE472(f) - Mixed acetic and tartaric acid esters of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acidsE473 - contains fatty acidsE474 - SucroglyceridesE475 - Polyglycerol esters of fatty acidsE476 - Polyglycerol esters of polycondensed fatty acids of caster oilE477 - contains fatty acidsE479(b) - contains fatty acidsE481 - Sodium stearoyl-2-lactylateE482 - Calcium stearoyl-2-lactylateE483 - Stearyl tartrateE(491 - 495) - SorbitanE570 - Stearic acidE585 - Ferrous LactateE640 - Glycine and its sodium saltE920 - L-cysteine and L-cysteine hydrochlorideE1518 - GlycerolIf you are unsure as to whether an additive is of animal origin, get hold of the manufacturer, who will most likely be able to tell you.
