Edible seaweed Chondrus crispus, found on rocky Atlantic shores of Ireland, northern Europe, and North America. It is a reddish-brown alga 5–30 cm/2–12 in long and highly branched. An extract from it (E407) is used commercially as an emulsifier in ice cream, jellies, soups, and confectionery.

It is sold bleached and dried for home use. It is also used in cough medicines, absorbent surgical dressings, stuffing mattresses, and feeding cattle.
