Disodium inosinate (E631) is the disodium salt of
inosinic acid with the chemical formula C10H11N4Na2O8P. It is used as a food
additive and often found in instant noodles, potato chips, and a variety of
other snacks.
Disodium inosinate is generally produced from meat or
from fish. Therefore, disodium inosinate may not be suitable for vegans and
vegetarians, and in most cases not suitable for observant Jews, Muslims, and
Sikhs, depending on the origin of the product. Muslims should generally avoid
it according to their religious beliefs. Like rennet it is normally a
non-vegetarian product; only the producer can provide information on the origin
although it is in some cases labeled as "vegetarian"
