Used primarily as a flavoring agent due to its potent earthy, nutty, and roasted aroma. Commonly found in food products such as potato chips, roasted nuts, and savory snacks to enhance overall flavor profile. Also utilized in the formulation of meat flavorings and gravies to impart a natural, roasted character. Frequently employed in the fragrance industry for creating natural-smelling, food-based scents in consumer products like candles and air fresheners. Its high impact at low concentrations makes it valuable in flavor and fragrance applications where cost and efficiency are important.
