According to Chinese standards, if potassium hydroxide needs to be used directly for food product processing, 

relevant national health regulations must be followed.

Potassium hydroxide is highly corrosive and can strongly irritate the respiratory tract or cause burns when inhaled; 

oral administration can burn the digestive tract and can lead to death, so care must be taken when using it.

Limitations are required when formulating products such as baby food, frozen French-fried potatoes, edible caseinates, 

cocoa powder and sugary cocoa powder, cocoa powder, cocoa mass and cocoa cake.
