Of all the many accomplishments of food chemists in recent decades, perhaps the most remarkable is the development of synthetic foods. Ta 'l-kisbiet ħafna kimiċi ikel fil-deċennji riċenti, forsi l-aktar notevoli huwa l-iżvilupp ta' ikel sintetiċi. The term synthetic food refers to a food not found in nature.

Mhux tal-ħalib creamer, imsemmija fil-Kapitolu 1, huwa ta 'spiss ikkwotati bħala eżempju klassiku ta' l-ikel sintetiċi. It does not exist anywhere in the natural world and was invented by food chemists to replace a natural product, natural cream. Ma jeżistu kullimkien fid-dinja naturali u ġie ivvintat mill kimiċi ikel biex jieħu post prodott naturali, krema naturali. Any... Kull ... Carbonated soft drinks made primarily of water containing dissolved carbon dioxide, artificial coloring, artificial flavoring, and other ingredients go by many different names in different parts of the country: pop, soda, soda pop, and tonic. Soft drinks karbonati magħmula prinċipalment minn ilma li fih maħlul dijossidu tal-karbonju, sustanzi koloranti artifiċjali, ħwawar artifiċjali, u ingredjenti oħra jmorru bil ismijiet differenti ħafna fil-partijiet differenti tal-pajjiż: pop, soda, pop soda, u toniku. These drinks are also widely known as soft drinks, although that term is generally used for noncarbonated drinks also. Dan ix-xorb huma wkoll magħrufa bħala soft drinks, għalkemm it-terminu huwa ġeneralment użat għall xorb noncarbonated wkoll. Soda pop may well be one of the world's first totally artificial... Pop soda tista 'ukoll tkun wieħed mill-dinja l-ewwel totalment artifiċjali ... In recent years, some people have criticized soda pop on nutritional grounds. Fi snin reċenti, xi nies kkritikaw pop soda għal raġunijiet nutrittivi. They argue that it scarcely deserves to be called a food since it typically contains few, if any, nutrients.

As of late 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved five artificial sweeteners for use in the United States. Mill-2004 tard, il-US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) kienet approvat ħames ħlewwiet artifiċjali għall-użu fl-Istati Uniti. They are saccharin, aspartame, sucralose, ace-sulfame potassium,...

He is best remembered for two accomplishments: the first was the discovery in 1879 of o-benzoyl sulfimide, the compound now known as saccharin, and his contributions to the development of professional education in science in the United States. Huwa mfakkar aħjar għal żewġ kisbiet: l-ewwel kien l-iskoperta fl-1879 ta 'o-Benzoyl sulfimide, il-kompost issa magħrufa bħala sakkarina, u kontribuzzjonijiet tiegħu għall-iżvilupp ta' edukazzjoni professjonali fix-xjenza fl-Istati Uniti.
