Acidulants serve as natural preservatives by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and fungi that could cause food to degrade. They extend the shelf life of perishable food products such as bakery items (bread, cakes, pastries), dairy products (yogurt, cheese), and meat products (sausages, cured meats). In bakery applications, acidulants condition dough, improving its texture, elasticity, and rise. They help achieve desirable characteristics in baked goods such as bread, rolls, and pastries.

Moreover, acidulants are utilized in fermentation processes to create acidic environments conducive to the growth of beneficial microorganisms. They play a role in fermenting foods like yogurt, cheese, sauerkraut, and sourdough bread. Acidulants are added to marinades and brine to tenderize meat, poultry, and seafood and enhance flavor penetration.

The need for acidulants will increase with Mexico's food processing industry's growth. Acidulants are essential ingredients in food processing for various purposes, including flavor enhancement, preservation, pH regulation, and texture improvement. The growing production of processed foods such as snacks, beverages, sauces, and canned goods will drive the need for acidulants in Mexico. The food processing sector in Mexico was one of the most active in the nation, with an average annual growth rate of 4.3%, according to the US Department of Agriculture.
