Greetings all you furries
I found this at the butter toffee peanuts on the grocery store shelf.
What could possible go wrong with a word combining Fur and Alcohol!
“Furfuryl alcohol is an organic compound containing a furan substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. It is a colorless liquid, but aged samples appear amber. [1]
“Non-enzymatic browning, known as the Maillard reaction, typically gives many baked goods their characteristic brown color, but can also be responsible for furfuryl alcohol formation. Furfuryl alcohol has been found in a wide variety of products, including wheat, bran, coffee, seafood, nuts, processed produce, legumes, alcohol and honey.”[2]
“Furfuryl alcohol is created naturally as a result of the process of heating sugar to create a caramel color. It can be found in trace amounts in many brown-hued colors used often in caramel, coffee, cola, root beer, and maple-flavored drinks.”[3]
Furfuryl alcohol may be toxic by ingestion and skin contact and moderately toxic by inhalation.
