GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) is a regulatory designation set by the U.S. FDA. GRAS applies to any substance intentionally added to a food, that is not a food additive, colour additive, or prior sanctioned ingredient. As the food industry continues to grow and new ingredients are being investigated, achieving GRAS status has become more valuable.
