Salicylates are a family of natural plant chemicals found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, herbs and spices, jams, honey, yeast extracts, tea and coffee, juices, beer and wines. They are also present in flavourings (e.g. peppermint), perfumes, scented toiletries, eucalyptus oils, and some medications (Aspirin is a member of the salicylate family). Salicylates are highest in unripened fruit and decrease as fruit ripens. They are often concentrated just under the skin of fruit and vegetables and in the outer leaves of vegetables. All fruit and vegetables should be ripe and thickly peeled. Do not eat the outer leaves of leafy vegetables. Amines are compounds that are known for their strong, pungent odours. For example, they are found in deli meats such as salami, bacon, ham and frankfurts, tinned fish and meats, tomato paste and pasta sauces. Large amounts are present in cheese, chocolate, wines, beer and yeast extracts. They are also found in some fruits and vegetables, e.g. bananas, avocados, tomatoes and broad beans. MSG (monosodium glutamate) is found naturally in most foods and in its free form, not linked to protein; it enhances the flavour of food. That is why foods rich in natural MSG are used frequently in cooking, for example: tomatoes, strong cheeses (eg. Blue and parmesan), mushrooms, stock cubes, sauces, meat extracts and yeast extracts. Pure MSG is also used as a flavour enhancer in soups, sauces, Asian cooking and snack foods.
