What is Calcium Propionate?

Calcium propionate, which is used in the steakburger bun, is an organic salt formed through a reaction between calcium hydroxide* and propionic acid. It is used to prevent the growth of mold and bacteria, which extends the shelf life of foods.

Calcium propionate is used by manufacturers in the production of various food types.  The most common is breads, pastries, and other baked goods.  You will also find the ingredient in cheeses, yogurt, alcohol, and processed meats, among other processed foods.

*Note: Calcium hydroxide (also known as slaked lime) is created when calcium oxide is mixed with water.  It’s often used in pickling foods.  Propionic acid is a fatty acid used in food preservation.
