An object of the present invention is to provide an acetic acid-containing food or drink that exhibits suppressed sour taste and sour odor without adverse effects on the flavor. The acetic acid-containing food or drink according to the present invention comprises at least one aromatic component selected from the group consisting of (A) and (B) below: (A) unsaturated alcohols having 8 carbon atoms, and (B) monoterpenes or sesquiterpenes.

A method of improving flavor of a combination of a composition for increasing circulating ketone levels is disclosed. A composition containing (D)-β-hydroxybutyric acid (D-BHB), (D)-β-hydroxyvaleric acid (D-BHV), and (D)-1,3 butanediol (D-1,3BD) is disclosed. Exemplary compositions may be incorporated into food, supplement, and beverage products.

Provided herein is a compound of Formula I: ##STR00001##
wherein R represents a terpene hydroperoxyl selected from the group consisting of ##STR00002##
wherein R′ represents a alkyl group selected from the group consisting: CH.sub.3(CH.sub.2).sub.8—, CH.sub.3(CH.sub.2).sub.6—, and CH.sub.3—.

A composition and method of increasing ketotic efficiency and improving flavor of a combination of a (D)-β-hydroxybutyric acid and (D)-1,3 butanediol composition for increasing circulating ketone levels is disclosed. Exemplary compositions may be incorporated into food, supplement, and beverage products.

A Lucuma nervosa essence, a Lucuma nervosa aroma enhancer, a preparation method and applications thereof are disclosed. The Lucuma nervosa aroma enhancer includes methyl 3,7-dimethyl-6-octenoate and/or 3-(methylthio)propyl butyrate. A mass percentage of the Lucuma nervosa aroma enhancer in a Lucuma nervosa essence is 0.08%-1.1%, the Lucuma nervosa essence includes a substrate and the Lucuma nervosa aroma enhancer. The preparation method of the Lucuma nervosa essence includes mixing the components of the Lucuma nervosa essence. The Lucuma nervosa essence can be applied in preparing a food and/or a flavoring with a Lucuma nervosa flavor. When the Lucuma nervosa aroma enhancer provided by the present invention is used in combination with a Lucuma nervosa extract, or mixed with a composition in conjunction with other essence raw materials, the prepared Lucuma nervosa essence has full fruity aroma and strong sulfide aroma, thus effectively improving the aroma and taste of final products.
