Usually this hydrolysis process goes unnoticed‚ since most fatty acids are odorless and tasteless. A particular problem arises with butter‚ which contains triglycerides with a high content of butyric acid derivatives and acetic acids. Oxidative rancidity[edit] Oxidative rancidity is associated with the degradation
