ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides compositions containing bitterness inhibitors that reduce the bitter taste of KCl that is used in foods or beverages as a substitute for sodium chloride. The compositions contain as bitterness inhibitors taurine and 5′-adenosinic acid, and 5′-inosinic acid, and/or 5′-guanylic acid. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods of using these compositions and methods for preparing them.
