Ice-cream, margarine, salad dressings, bread, and desserts are some common examples of food that contain emulsifiers. Food emulsifiers can control crystallization, reduce stickiness and prevent separation of an ingredients. These properties and adverse health effects of synthetic food emulsifiers have led to an increasing demand for plant-sourced food emulsifiers in food and beverages industry. According to the European Union, brominated vegetable oil (BVO), one of the food additives that act as an emulsifier, is banned in Europe, as it can cause damage to the nervous system, skin cancer, and other problems related to memory loss.

According to the Vegetarian Society, a British registered charity that promotes vegetarianism in U.K., the number of vegetarians increased from around 5% of the population to around 10% in 2015. This increasing trend of veganism and vegetarianism is influencing most of the manufacturers to adopt plant-sourced food emulsifiers. For instance, in May 2017, Hydrosol GmbH & Co. KG launched a vegan emulsifier stabilizer, HydroTop, which is produced with a blend of hydrocolloids derived from cellulose and vegetable-based fiber with high water binding capacity.
