TASTE & BEYOND / WELLBEING & NUTRITION Salt Reduction Consumer concerns over Salt & MSG continue to be a major challenge for the food industry and a global concern touching almost every product category in Savory. Consumers understand the need to reduce sodium but won’t compromise on Taste. Consumers are also now much more aware than ever about what goes into their food.This clear trend towards cleaner labels is driving the need to find alternative solutions to MSG. FRAGRANCE / PURPOSE Reinforcing positive feelings of wellbeing Emotions stem from instinctive reactions, not reasoning. They are controlled by the brain’s limbic system which also controls the sense of smell. It takes only 3.3 second to inhale and exhale but a brief encounter with scent lingers much longer in consumers’ memories. SEE MORE TASTE & BEYOND FRAGRANCE INGREDIENTS Developing a new product ?
