Accent is an all natural food flavor enhancer called glutamate. Accent has the remarkable ability to bring out and enhance the flavors of other foods. When you add Accent to meats, poultry, fish, salads, vegetables, sauces, casseroles, soups and stews, you’ll find they all taste more flavorful – in a word – they taste better. Glutamate is a natural product that’s found in our bodies and in many pure foods including beets, tomatoes and cheese. The glutamate in Accent is made from corn. Today, glutamate is widely used in Japan, and is usually found right on the tabletop for everyday use. All Natural and 60% less sodium than salt!
