Abstract
American-European (Corylus americana × Corylus avellana) hazelnut hybrids are being developed for the Midwest-growing region of the United States. However, an inadequate understanding of the compounds that impact the consumer acceptance of hazelnuts limits breeding programs. Nontargeted liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) chemical profiles of 12 roasted hybrid hazelnut samples and the corresponding consumer flavor liking scores were modeled by orthogonal partial least squares with good fit and predictive ability (R2Y > 0.9, Q2 > 0.9) to identify compounds that impact nut liking. The five most predictive compounds (1-5) were negatively correlated to flavor liking, selected as putative markers, purified by multidimensional preparative LC/MS, structurally elucidated (nuclear magnetic resonance, MS), quantified, and validated for sensory relevance. Compound 1 was identified as 1″-O-3'-b-glucofuranosyl-1'-O-1-b-glucofuranosyl-(2,6-dihydroxyphenyl)-ethan-4-one. Compounds 2 and 4 were identified as rotamers of 2-(3-hydroxy-2-oxoindolin-3-yl) acetic acid 3-O-6'-galactopyranosyl-2″-(2″oxoindolin-3″yl) acetate, whereas compounds 3 and 5 were identified as rotamers of 1″-O-1'-b-glucofuranosyl-9-O-6'-b-glucopyranosyl-2″-(2″-oxoindolin-3″yl) acetate. Sensory evaluation determined that all compounds were characterized by bitterness and/or astringency. The sensory threshold values of compounds 1-5 were determined to be below the concentrations reported in 91, 83, 41, 25, and 41% of all 12 hybrid hazelnut samples, respectively, indicating they contributed to aversive flavor attributes.

Abstract
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is the most valuable fruit and horticultural crop species worldwide. Compared with the fruits of their progenitors, those of modern tomato cultivars are, however, often described as having unsatisfactory taste or lacking flavor. The flavor of a tomato fruit arises from a complex mix of tastes and volatile metabolites, including sugars, acids, amino acids, and various volatiles. However, considerable differences in fruit flavor occur among tomato varieties, resulting in mixed consumer experiences. While tomato breeding has traditionally been driven by the desire for continual increases in yield and the introduction of traits that provide a long shelf-life, consumers are prepared to pay a reasonable premium for taste. Therefore, it is necessary to characterize preferences of tomato flavor and to define its underlying genetic basis. Here, we review recent conceptual and technological advances that have rendered this more feasible, including multi-omics-based QTL and association analyses, along with the use of trained testing panels, and machine learning approaches. This review proposes how the comprehensive datasets compiled to date could allow a precise rational design of tomato germplasm resources with improved organoleptic quality for the future.

Abstract
Nowadays, the classification of strong-aroma types of base Baijiu (base SAB) is mainly achieved by human sensory evaluation. However, prolonged tasting brings difficulties for sommeliers in guaranteeing the consistency of results, and may even cause health problems. Herein, an electronic tongue (E-Tongue) combined with a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method was successfully developed to grade high-alcoholic base SAB. The E-tongue was capable of identifying base SAB samples into four grades by a discriminant function analysis (DFA) model based on human sensory evaluation results. More importantly, it could effectively and rapidly predict the quality grade of unknown base SAB with an average accuracy up to 95%. The differences of chemical components between base SAB samples were studied by the GC-MS analysis and 52 aroma compounds were identified. The qualitative and quantitative results showed that with the increase of base SAB grade, the varieties and contents of aroma compounds increased. Overall, the comprehensive analysis of E-tongue data and GC-MS results could be in good agreement with human sensory evaluation results, which also proved that the newly developed method has a potential to be a useful alternative to the overall quality grading of base Baijiu.

Abstract
Non-volatile compounds that impact the acceptability of strawberry preserves were investigated by untargeted LC-MS flavoromics analysis. Chemical profiles for fifteen strawberry preserves were modeled against consumer liking scores by orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS) with good fit (R2Y = 0.995) and predictive ability (Q2 = 0.918). Four chemical compounds predictive of acceptability were identified, by accurate MS and NMR, as secoisolariciresinol monoglucoside, (+)-isolariciresinol monoglucoside, 1-hexanoyl-phloroglucinol-2-O-β-d-glucoside, and the novel compound decanoic acid-4-O-β-d-glucoside. Sensory recombination testing of preserve samples with added levels of the four predictive LC-MS compounds indicated perceivable sensory changes in the flavor profile. Female consumers significantly preferred the recombination preserve with added levels of both predictive GC-MS and LC-MS compounds as compared to the control preserve, demonstrating the applicability of the approach for understanding product liking.

Abstract
Volatile compounds that impact the acceptability of strawberry preserves were investigated by untargeted GC-MS flavoromics analysis. Chemical profiles for fifteen strawberry preserves were modeled against consumer liking scores by orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS) with good fit (R2Y = 0.998) and predictive ability (Q2 = 0.853). Ten highly predictive compounds were selected, nine of which were identified, and eight of which were quantified using tandem mass spectrometry. Sensory recombination difference testing revealed that the addition of predictive compounds to an average-liked preserve at levels found in the most-liked preserve induced a perceptible difference to frequent consumers of strawberry jams. One of the highly predictive compounds was identified (MS and synthesis) as a novel linalool oxide product 2-methyl-2-vinyl-tetrahydrofuran with a fruity, herbal-minty, piney aroma and a low odor threshold value.

Abstract
Sweetness is an important Baijiu quality marker, but there is limited research on it. In this study, the main contributors to Baijiu sweetness were identified by “sensomics” combined with “flavoromics”. A total of 43 volatile compounds (mostly esters) were found that appeared to contribute to Baijiu sweetness, through sensory-guided fractionation and compositional analysis. Correlation analysis between the volatile composition and perceived sweetness of 18 Baijiu samples with different sweet intensities identified 14 potential contributors. Additional testing verified that combining the 14 compounds reproduced Baijiu sweetness exactly, and omission testing identified ethyl hexanoate, hexyl hexanoate and ethyl 3-methylbutanoate as the major contributors to Baijiu sweetness. These findings not only broadened our understanding of Baijiu sweetness, but also highlighted the major contribution of volatile compounds to sweetness perception, knowledge which may facilitate future flavor modification of a wide variety of foods and beverages.

Abstract
The burnt flavor (overcooked rice flavor) is often retronasally perceived during the soy sauce aroma type Chinese Baijiu (Chinese distilled spirit) tasting and regarded as an important quality marker of the Baijiu. The sensory-guided isolation approach assisted by multivariate data analysis was applied to identify the compounds responsible for the retronasal burnt flavor in the Baijiu. Using two-dimensional offline high performance liquid chromatography separation and taste dilution analysis, a subfraction with the highest burnt flavor intensity was isolated from the Baijiu sample. In the subfraction, six potential flavor compounds were detected by ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The most probable burnt flavor compound was screened by projection to latent structure regression analysis of the correlation between the potential compounds and their impact on burnt flavor. The target compound was identified as 2-hydroxymethyl-3,6-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine by means of high-resolution mass spectrometry and chemical synthesis. Sensory evaluation revealed a relatively low burnt flavor threshold of 2.89 μmol/L in 53% ethanol aqueous solution. On the basis of the dose-overthreshold factor and addition experiment, this compound was confirmed as the key contributor to the burnt flavor of soy sauce aroma type Baijiu.

Abstract
Pre-clinical and clinical studies suggest black raspberries (BRBs) may inhibit the development of oral cancer. Lyophilized BRB powder is commonly used in these studies, but processed BRB products are more often consumed. The objective of this work was to understand how storage conditions influence the phytochemical profile and anti-proliferative activity of a BRB nectar beverage. Untargeted UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS based metabolomics analyses demonstrated that large chemical variation was introduced by storage above -20 °C over 60 days. However, minimal change in anti-proliferative activity was observed when stored nectar extracts were applied to SCC-83-01-82 premalignant oral epithelial cells. As proof of concept, cyanidin-3-O-rutinoside and its degradation product, protocatechuic acid, were administered in different ratios maintaining an equimolar dose, and anti-proliferative activity was maintained. This study shows the utility of metabolomics to profile global chemical changes in foods, while demonstrating that isolated phytochemicals do not explain the complete bioactivity of a complex food product.
