INS is an additive numbering system of codex while E is of European food authority. Artificial flavors and solvents have E numbers in the range E1500- 1525 while flavor enhancers belong to the E600- E699 group. An added advantage of E number identification is that the identity of the flavoring agent can be investigated from the denoted number. Often source of a flavoring agent is crucial for people avoiding non-vegetarian/non-kosher/non-halal ingredients. An interesting example for this would be additive E631 and E635.
