　　In Korea, although sodium saccharin is a food additive, the regulations stipulate that sodium saccharin cannot be used in natural aquatic products.
Some dried seaweed manufacturers use sodium saccharin for flavoring, but claim that the products they produce are natural seaweed.

 

　　The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety of Korea stated that it will continue to conduct random inspections of dried laver products in the future, and will do its best to establish a sound distribution order.
