Buyer-intent guide
Use these long-tail procurement questions when comparing a manufacturer source, China supplier, distributor offer, sample or bulk quotation.

Technical selection
DATEM is a mixture; agree relevant acid, saponification or other source-specific controls privately.
Confirm source oils, saturation profile and required declarations.
Supplier comparisons should use the same flour, recipe, process and objective measurements.
Check INS 472e food categories, levels and labeling in each destination market.
