Abstract: Disclosed is a composition comprising a combination of at least one flavor compound and a taste-modulating portion of a filamentous fungus mycelial aqueous culture, e.g. a mycelia is from a Cordyceps spp, where the flavor compound is a combination and sodium chloride and potassium chloride and when combined with food, beverage or other product, reduces metallic and/or bitter taste resulting from the presence of KCl and provides an extended “salt” flavor perception in the product. The flavor compound can also include at where the at least one flavor compound is a bitterness blocker or a bitterness masker, wherein the combination is capable of synergistically reducing bitter tastes or reducing aftertastes of a food, beverage, or other product. Methods to enhance the taste of a food, beverage or other product using the flavor compounds and taste-modifying portions of a filamentous fungus are also disclosed.

Abstract: Provided is a food composition which include a myceliated high-protein food product and methods to make such compositions, which are mixtures of myceliated high-protein food products and other edible materials. A food composition includes dairy alternative products, ready to mix beverages and beverage bases; extruded and extruded/puffed products; sheeted baked goods; meat analogs and extenders; baked goods and baking mixes; granola; and soups/soup bases. Food compositions also include texturized plant protein which can be used for making meat-structured plant protein meat analog or meat extender products. The food compositions have reduced undesirable flavors and reduced undesirable aromas due to use of myceliated high-protein food products as compared to use of similar high-protein material that is not myceliated.

Abstract: A composition for confectionery applications, which comprises: a fat composition having a solid fat content (SFC) with an N20 of at least 10% and N35 of at most 10% measured on stabilized fat stabilized at 20° C. for 40 hours according to ISO 8292-1; at least one emulsifier; and at least one bitterness inhibitor dispersed or dissolved in the fat composition.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for propagating adjustment across channels of multi-dimensional data. Multi-dimensional data can be stored in a database, the multi-dimensional data including at least a channel dimension with a plurality of channel members and a product dimension with a plurality of product members. Return input including a first number and fulfilment input including a second number can be received about a first product member. A display can be dynamically generated for one or more cross-sections of data between the first product member and multiple of the channel members, wherein the first number and second number are propagated to intersections of the first product member and the multiple channel members by dynamically adjusting inventory data or sales data based on the first number and the second number.

Abstract: A surface cleaning device used with a vacuum cleaner nozzle inlet to clean a selected surface profile, includes a housing with a surrounding sidewall defining a housing interior. A divider is disposed within the housing interior, to separate into a first and second housing interior. The surrounding sidewall terminates in a first opening communicating between the first housing interior and an exterior environment and a second opening communicating between the second housing interior and the exterior environment. The first and second openings are approximately matched in profile to respective selected surface profiles to clean. A divider aperture collar is adjacent to the divider forming a fluid communication between the first and second housing interiors. The divider aperture collar is removably engagable to the nozzle to create a substantially fluid tight communication selectively between either the first housing interior and the nozzle or the second housing interior and the nozzle.
