How come I never saw guar gum on the label before?
Our organic coconut milk supplier in Thailand has always included a tiny amount of guar gum, a natural emulsifier made from the ground seeds of the fiber-rich Indian guar plant, to help prevent the coconut oil from separating out of the milk. Guar gum also has other beneficial properties. We are not required to break down the constituents of coconut milk on our ingredient listing, but because we feel it is important to give people as much information as possible, we have chosen to list it on our new package. We are very excited and happy about our new package design and hope that you will enjoy it, too.
