    Not true. It’s considered safe by WebMD, and it’s been studied as a food for a long time. It is chemically similar to cocoa butter.

    So it’s been approved by more reputable organizations than the FDA.

      Web MD is crap. Also GRAS is a term that only the FDA can bestow. So yeah it’s not GRAS.
