Is Lecithin Vegan?

Result: Unknown · Medium confidence

Lecithin can come from soy, sunflower, egg, or other sources.

Lecithin can come from soy, sunflower, egg, or other sources. Classified Unknown because the label term can cover both vegan and non-vegan sources, or because the processing route is not clear enough from the ingredient name alone. Source must be checked if not specified; soy and sunflower are usually acceptable, egg lecithin is not. The source is useful for regulated additive identity or official food-use context, but it may not confirm vegan origin on its own. Keep as needs_review until a human reviewer confirms the source, aliases, and any supplier-specific caveats.
