is a thickening agent. it is natural made from a form of seeweed.. for most people it is fine, for me it and MSG cause nasty headaches and general ickyness... it is chemically similar to MSG in some ways and many people with MSG issues also have to avoid it (per my nutritionist). Sadly because of texture issues it is added to a LOT of soy products (not all) and also to a lot of other vegan alternatives... but its also in a lot of non specialty foods as well....
