- Key Flavor Agent: Essential for creating savory, meaty, and alliaceous (garlic/onion) notes. It replicates the sulfurous compounds found in cooked meats (especially beef and poultry), roasted coffee, and truffles.
- Critical component in:
- Meat flavorings for processed foods, soups, and savory snacks
