ACIDIC COMPOSITION FOR ORAL INGESTION, PACKAGED BEVERAGE, METHOD FOR PRODUCING ACIDIC COMPOSITION FOR ORAL INGESTION, AND METHOD FOR SUPPRESSING FOREIGN TASTE
To provide a technique for suppressing a foreign taste felt by a person who takes in an acidic composition for oral ingestion containing protein hydrolysate.SOLUTION: An acidic composition for oral ingestion contains protein hydrolysate, and vanillin, with the ratio between vanillin concentration (ppm) and nitrogen content (mass%) (vanillin/nitrogen content) being 0.1 or more and 10000 or less.SELECTED DRAWING: None【課題】タンパク加水分解物を含有する経口摂取用酸性組成物を摂取したときに感じられる異味を抑制する技術を提供する。【解決手段】経口摂取用酸性組成物は、タンパク加水分解物、およびバニリンを含有し、バニリン濃度(ppm)と、窒素含有量(質量%)との比(バニリン/窒素量)が、0.1以上、10000以下である。【選択図】なし
