So, what is carrageenan as stabilizer?

Carrageenan is a natural ingredient derived from seaweed that has been used for centuries as a stabilizer in food products. As a stabilizer, carrageenan helps to maintain the desired texture and consistency of foods, preventing separation or settling of ingredients. It is commonly used in dairy products such as ice cream, as well as in plant-based milks, deli meats, and other processed foods. Carrageenan is a popular alternative to synthetic stabilizers because of its natural origin and its ability to improve the overall quality of food products.
