I don't know off hand.
I DO know I can taste one drop of oil of oregano in 2 liters or water

Also certain ingredients add texture. Try adding a tsp of butter to
2 liters of boiling water - say for pasta. Now imagine it was lard.

If a company adds it purposefully I would assume it serves a purpose.

AFAIK YD discusses accidentals and incidentals not intentionals.

I guess there can be ways to be "naval birshus hattorah" and beat the
system somehow. Atu birshi'i askinan?
