What are the "Artificial Flavors" in the product ingredient lists?

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defines this phrase as shown below:

"The term artificial flavor or artificial flavoring means any substance, the function of which is to impart flavor, which is not derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof." Source: US FDA - Food Labeling

Flavor is a combination of taste and smell, so many of these ingredients are odoriferous substances with complicated chemical names meaningless to us laymen. We at Spice Place recommend that if you have a question about an ingredient in a specific product that you contact the products manufacturer.
