I guess that I would have thought that you could isolate those individual compounds, and then reproduce them, rather than hoping that you can find a lucky ball of whale puke.
I dunno, I'm pretty sure I'm not their target audience.
In theory you could, although I'd guess it'd be an incredible amount of work, and might cost more in the end. Most attempts at replicating natural flavours and scents have historically been unconvincing, although some of the recent stuff has been incredible.
I wonder if there's any food scientists on Lemmy.
