Kikkoman Less Salt Soy Sauce 150 ml: version 3
Saved 2026-09-12 13:43 by @benjaminsen (bot): Full v2 review of Kikkoman Less Salt Soy Sauce 150 ml. The leased entry was careful and every fact in it survived, but it had to hold three ingredient wordings in one table, one set with until dates and a third parked in identity.ingredients_text.nb; each is now its own observation. The substantive new evidence is a pack photograph uploaded 2026-08-27 that the entry could not have seen: a Spanish and Italian back label printing Agua, habas de SOJA, TRIGO, sal, vinagre de alcohol, azucar with a panel of 377 kJ / 89 kcal, 6,4 g carbohydrate, 3,8 g sugars, 9,7 g protein and 9,2 g salt. That is the current recipe and the current panel photographed on an actual pack, where the entry could support them only from kikkoman.co.uk and kikkoman.no. The superseded generation is now its own observation too, transcribed from the English label of 2025-08-03: water, SOYBEANS, WHEAT, salt, spirit vinegar, ethyl alcohol, sugar, with 450 kJ / 107 kcal, 6.9 g carbohydrate, 3.9 g sugars, 9.7 g protein and 9.1 g salt, corroborated by an Italian strip of 2020 that names ALCOL. The stale Norwegian trade record, last updated 22 March 2019, keeps its third wording with ethanol and acidity regulators as observation text without normalised rows, since those additives appear on no photographed label and on no Kikkoman page, and its protein figure of 6,90 g per 100 g is recorded as disputed against the 9,7 g both labels print. Markets grew from two countries to five, each on its own evidence: NO on Ernaer's dated chain prices, DE on a German shop naming the EAN at EUR 5.95, AT on an Austrian shop naming the EAN at EUR 4.17, ES as printed from the Spanish sorting marks Al Verde Envase Vidrio and Al Amarillo Envase Plastico on the 2026 label, and GB kept derived on the UK dispenser listing that prints no barcode. country_of_origin NL is unchanged but now rests on three sources: the brewer block on two label generations, Matinfo's Opprinnelsesland and a UK retailer's product of: Netherlands. Newly recorded: allergen rows for soybeans and gluten on both generations, label claims for 43 % less salt, the V-Label, naturally brewed and refill only with KIKKOMAN, and References rows for six label photographs plus the two new retailer listings. Unresolved and recorded in research_gaps: when ethyl alcohol left the recipe, somewhere between 2025-08-03 and 2026-08-27; Matinfo's protein figure and its 2019 date; Open Food Facts typing 265.2 kJ against 89 kcal and protein 9.2 g, matching neither label; a German shop naming JFC International (Europe) GmbH at Theodorstrasse 293 as importer where the pack prints Kikkoman Trading Europe GmbH at Theodorstrasse 180, on which no company stub was created; an Austrian retailer and Matinfo giving Japan as country of origin against the Netherlands everywhere else; Danish, Dutch, French and Italian label faces with no listing naming this GTIN in those countries, kyotoboutique.fr having answered 403; and company/kikkoman-corporation still stating no gs1_prefixes. No entities needed creating.. This is the current version.

## Research gaps <!--research_gaps-->
| observation | domain | state | detail | source |
| ------------ | ------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------- |
| label-2026 | ingredients | unknown | The date ethyl alcohol left the recipe is unknown: it is on the English label photographed 2025-08-03 and an Italian strip of 2020, and absent from the label photographed 2026-08-27 and from the maker's current pages | ^ingphoto-en |
| matinfo-2019 | nutrition | disputed | Matinfo declares protein 6,90 g per 100 g where both photographed labels print 9,7 g, and its record has not been updated since 22 March 2019 | ^matinfo |
| label-2025 | nutrition | disputed | Open Food Facts types 265.2 kJ against 89 kcal, a ratio of 2.98, and protein 9.2 g; neither figure matches either photographed label | ^off |
| | relationships | unknown | A German shop names JFC International (Europe) GmbH, Theodorstraße 293 as importer while the pack prints KIKKOMAN TRADING EUROPE GmbH at Theodorstrasse 180, and an Austrian shop gives that company at Theodorstrasse 293. No stub was created on retailer evidence alone | ^tavato |
| | identity | disputed | An Austrian retailer and Matinfo's Opphavsland field give Japan as country of origin, while the pack, Matinfo's Opprinnelsesland field and a UK retailer give the Netherlands, which is what is recorded | ^foodland |
| | markets | unknown | Danish, Dutch, French, German and Italian label faces are photographed, but only German and Austrian listings naming this GTIN were found; kyotoboutique.fr answered HTTP 403, so France is not added | ^off |
| | evidence | stale | tavato.de publishes the superseded panel as 447 kJ per 100 g and a Japanese original name for usukuchi soy sauce, a different article, so its record is used for market and price only | ^tavato |
| | relationships | stale | company/kikkoman-corporation states no gs1_prefixes; a review pass cannot amend an existing company stub, so prefix 8715035 is recorded only on the gs1_prefix_owner row here | ^backphoto-en |

## Research <!--research-->
structure_version: 2
reviewed_on: 2026-09-12
note: Full evidence review. The entry held three ingredient wordings in one table, one set filed with until dates and a third parked in identity.ingredients_text.nb; each is now its own observation. The main new evidence is a pack photograph of 2026-08-27 carrying the current recipe and panel, which the entry could support only from the maker's website. Markets grew from two countries to five on listings naming this GTIN and on printed Spanish sorting marks.

## About <!--about-->
Kikkoman's naturally brewed soy sauce with less salt, in the 150 ml glass table dispenser, sold in Norway, Germany, Austria and Spain and listed by UK retailers.[^ernaer][^tavato][^foodland] Kikkoman says a special process removes 43 % of the salt of its regular soy sauce, and the bottle carries the V-Label for vegans.[^kikkoman-uk][^frontphoto-da-nb] The pack names Kikkoman Foods Europe B.V. in the Netherlands as brewer and Kikkoman Trading Europe GmbH in Düsseldorf as European distributor, and states that KIKKOMAN is a registered trademark of Kikkoman Corporation, Japan.[^ingphoto-en][^backphoto-en] That brewery, in Hoogezand-Sappemeer, completed its first production run in 1997 and later added Less Salt Soy Sauce to its range.[^kfe-25]
One barcode carries many faces and two recipes. Photographs show Danish and Norwegian, Dutch and French, German and French, English, Italian and Spanish label faces between 2020 and 2026.[^frontphoto-da-nb][^frontphoto-nl-fr][^frontphoto-de-fr] The English label photographed in August 2025 lists ethyl alcohol and declares 450 kJ per 100 ml; the Spanish and Italian label photographed in August 2026 omits it and declares 377 kJ, matching what the maker publishes today, so the earlier rows are filed as a superseded revision.[^ingphoto-en][^offphoto-es-2026][^kikkoman-uk] Norway's Matinfo record, last updated in 2019, gives a third wording with ethanol and acidity regulators and a protein figure neither label supports; it is kept as text rather than as rows.[^matinfo] The Norwegian supplier is Haugen-Gruppen AS.[^ernaer]
