Does natural ginger flavouring contain an allergen?

It depends on how it was made. Open Food Facts does not link natural ginger flavouring to an allergen, and Bravoora’s label checker does not read the name as one. The label must name any allergen it carries.

Is natural ginger flavouring vegan?

It depends on the make. Some kinds of natural ginger flavouring are made with an animal product and a label rarely says which, so a vegan profile gets Heads up. Whether it is vegetarian depends on the make too.
