E476, also known as polyglycerol esters of fatty acids, is an emulsifier commonly used in food products. Its halal or haram status depends on the source of the fatty acids used in its production. If derived from halal sources (e.g., plant oils), it is considered halal; if derived from haram sources (e.g., animal fats), it would be haram. Therefore, it's essential to check specific product labeling or consult a knowledgeable authority for confirmation.

E476, also known as Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate (PGPR), is an emulsifier often used in food products. It can be derived from both plant and animal sources, but it is typically considered vegetarian if sourced from plants. However, to determine if a specific product containing E476 is vegetarian, it's best to check the manufacturer’s sourcing details or product labeling.
E500, E503, and E476 are food additives classified as emulsifiers, stabilizers, or thickening agents. E500 refers to sodium carbonates, which are often used to regulate acidity and improve texture in food products. E503 is potassium carbonates, serving similar functions. E476, also known as polyglycerol esters of fatty acids, is used to enhance the consistency and shelf-life of various food items.
