Applications in foods

Sodium acetate trihdyrate has the same fuctions as the sodium acetate anhydrous in foods amay be added to food as a seasoning, sometimes in the form of sodium diacetate, a one-to-one complex of sodium acetate and acetic acid, given the E-number E262.

It is often used to give potato chips a salt and vinegar flavour, and may be used as a substitute for vinegar itself on potato chips as it does not add moisture to the final product. 

Sodium acetate trihydrate (anhydrous) is widely used as a shelf-life extending agent and pH control agent. 

It is safe to eat at low concentration.
