Savory & Meaty Flavors
Savory flavors utilize aromas, mouth-feel, spices, and their combination to produce umami (an abundance of flavor) in our food. Umami provides essential sensory experiences that stimulate appetite while satisfying all our senses. S&S Foods’ reaction technology enhances savory flavors by creating traditional ethnic cuisine spice blends and more simple vegetable and sauce flavor profiles that appeal to customers.
Glutamate and monosodium glutamate (MSG) are taste enhancers that add umami flavor to savory foods while being less effective at lowering the salt content of soups. Cairoli et al. discovered that N2-alkyl and N2-acyl derivatives of GMP significantly enhanced the palatability of salted hashes by increasing the sensory impact of MSG.

Dilute as necessary with water until reaching the desired level of sweetness.
Natural Flavors
Natural flavors are an increasingly common component of packaged food and beverages, often mistaken for being better for you due to being derived from plant or animal sources. Unfortunately, this may not always be true; even “natural” flavors may contain chemicals.
Natural flavorings are produced using oils, oleoresins, essences, protein hydrolysates, distillates, and rotates from animals and plants; then combined with various chemicals such as preservatives, solvents, emulsifiers carriers to form the final natural flavor product (1). According to FDA regulations, natural flavors come from either plants or animals, such as fruits, meat, fish, spices, herbs, roots, seeds, nuts, berries, and vegetable bark (2).
Food manufacturers frequently add natural flavors to essential products like granola bars, ice cream, and frozen dinners (Breyers Natural Vanilla included). Although these natural flavors meet FDA safety requirements and comply with safety standards, they do not contain the antioxidants found in whole fruits and vegetables, plus the fatty acids may lead to digestive issues in some people. Therefore, most consumers would be wiser opting for organic options without artificial flavorings if possible; special consideration should also be made regarding food allergies or special diets when purchasing packaged goods from stores.
