anybody know what Edible food stabilizers are? They are having a sale on some bottles of Cholula in the marked down bins but it has that in the ingredients lists.

That's strange that they'd use such a vague term. The stabilizer could be a gum (xanthan, guar, cellulose, CMC, etc.) or a starch
Soluble fiber gums seem to be the biggest favorites for stabilizing. I'd buy the sauce. Even if it did turn out to be starch, it falls 2 notches below salt on the ingredient list. The sodium content per tsp. is 20 milligrams. That translates into about 50 milligrams of salt by weight. If the salt is .05 g per teaspoon, the stabilizer, falling below it on the list, would have to be less. Even if it were starch, you'd have to consume 20 teaspoons to get 1 net carb. That's a little less than 1/2 cup hot sauce.Comment

Gotcha!
I don't think I've ever seen soy lecithin used as a stabilizer (always as an emulsifier), but you never know.Comment

They e-mailed me back (wooot and I get coupons!!) and the edible food stabilizer is (drum roll) Xanthan Gum.
