It's the same compound that's found in the truffle. We found somewhere else to extract it, but we don't make it from scratch.
I suppose, then, truffles are just artificially flavored.

- jagged-chisel 4y agoThe snooty article author says it's the same. One would presume that if the compound was not the same, the author would be all over it and exclaiming that from the rooftops. As it stands, it's just an elitist article about the source of a compound that's either responsible for Terrific Truffles or Petroleum Pasta - author can't decide. edit: improve alliteration
