Summary
This soy sauce is a processed product with a relatively simple ingredient list, primarily consisting of water, soybeans, salt, and wheat. However, it includes potassium sorbate as a preservative, which is a synthetic additive that can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. While the processing level limits its score, the absence of seed oils and artificial sweeteners is a positive aspect.
