The Science Behind Jackson’s Favorite Sour Snacks

by

From Sour Patch Kids to Warheads, sour snacks are extremely popular. But have you ever wondered why? Sure, folks love the mouth-puckering taste. But surprisingly, science also plays a big part in our love of all things sour.

Want to learn more? Here’s what Graham Snack Foods has uncovered!

Acid Gives Sour Snacks Their Tart Taste

According to Serious Eats, different acids give sour snacks their unique taste. But don’t worry! These acids aren’t dangerous to eat. There are actually many types of edible acids. For instance, citric acid comes from fruits. And lactic acid is derived from milk.

Acetic acid gives chips their sour flavor. You’ll often find this in salt and vinegar or dill-flavored chips. Want to see your Jackson vending machines with this tasty snack? Contact Graham Snack Foods today! We carry a large selection of sour favorites and national brands.

Sugar Plays a Role in Sour Treats

Many of us think sweet snacks are the opposite of sour ones. However, that’s far from the case. Sweety Treaty says that sugar makes sour candy nicely sour. How? It balances the acid, making your favorite snacks even more delicious. Without sugar, these candies would be too bitter to enjoy. Sugar’s sweetness helps strike the perfect balance.

This can be seen in candies like Sour Skittles, gummies, and Sour Patch Kids. Sour drinks use sugar, too! Think lemon-lime sodas, like 7-Up and Sprite.

Treat employees to these tasty sour snacks and drinks. Graham Snack Foods offers plenty of sour goodies in Jackson micro-markets. These mini-stores are open 24/7. Thus, employees can buy these types of snacks whenever they like.

Sour Snacks Delight the Senses

Sour snacks are a pleasurable experience for your senses. That’s because sour tastes make your body produce dopamine. This is your body’s natural “happy” chemicals. They make you feel excited and motivated.

Want to boost employee satisfaction? It could be as easy as offering more sour snacks! We can stock the Jackson snack machine with sour treats. Then employees can enjoy free handfuls whenever they need a mood boost. Don’t forget about adding wonderfully sour drinks, like citrus sodas or juices. We can stock them in your Jackson beverage vending machine.
