Reminiscent of the flavor of cardboard. Cardboard flavor is usually a result of trace mono-enals and dienals of the C-8 to C-12 variety present at low levels. One cause is the oxidation of unsaturated fats; produced through auto-oxidation, light catalyzed oxidation, heat, or enzymes. In nature, these green compounds can form through action of indigenous enzymes, an example of which is pea flour (lipoxygenase) and beer. Cardboard-like flavor is attributed to E-2 nonenal development. Cardboard character has also been described as a trigeminal dryness due in part to tannins present. A third type of "cardboardyness" is a result of trace pyrazines. One example is the sulfur types such as thiopyrazine.
