Flavour enhancers are commonly added to commercially produced food products (eg. frozen dinners, instant soups, snackfoods) to make them taste more 'savoury'.

A Dictionary of Food and Nutrition flavour profile A method of judging the flavour of foods by examination of a list of the separate factors into which the flavour can be analysed, the so-called character notes.
In milk it is said to be due to the breakdown of methionine in the presence of vitamin B 2 ; in beer due to a change in the bitter principles from the hops.
An enhancer does not need to be particularly close to the genes it acts on, but it is on the same chromosome.
Enhancers can also be found within introns Introns are sections of DNA within a gene that do not encode part of the protein that the gene produces, and are spliced out of the mRNA that is transcribed from the gene before it is exported from the cell nucleus.
Furthermore, an enhancer may be excised and inserted elsewhere in the chromosome, and still affect gene transcription.
