Compositions for generating a cooked flavor in a foodstuff, comprising specified flavor precursors that react on heating to generate the flavor and maintain a reactive association after inclusion in the foodstuff. The compositions may include combination of a sulphur source, e.g. hydrogen sulphide, methane thiol, a sulfur-containing amino acid, thiamine, cystine, sodium sulphide, ammonium sulphide, ammonium polysulphide, onions, garlic, shallots, eggs, methionine, and mixtures thereof, and at least one reductone, e.g. a furanone, a ketone, a pyrone, an aldehyde, a carbonyl compound, isomaltol, maltol, pyruvaldehyde, hydroxyacetone, 3-deoxyglucosone, 5-hydroxy-5,6-dihydromaltol, 2,3-butanedione, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, a process flavor, cooked vegetable concentrates, soy sauce, and mixtures thereof.

A device as described in claim 1, wherein the shield comprises sealing material disposed on a periphery of the shield to seal the shield against a side of the vessel when the beverage device is pushed to the bottom of the vessel. 4. A device as described in claim 1, wherein a combined density of the beverage pack and the shield substantially matches that of the liquid in the vessel. 5. A device as described in claim 1, wherein the first member includes a plurality of pins depending therefrom and the second member includes a plurality of bores configured to engage the pins of the first member to engage the first member with the second member. 6. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the beverage pack is configured as a mesh basket. 7. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first member includes an outer rim with a hollow interior, with a pressing member extending between and connected to opposite sides of the outer rim. 8. The device as claimed in claim 1, including a plurality of pins projecting from the first member. 9. The device as claimed in claim 1, including a first sealing layer located adjacent a bottom of the first member. 10. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second member has an outer rim and a hollow interior and wherein the outer rim of the second member includes a plurality of bores configured to align with pins projecting from the first member such that the pins engage the bores to engage the first member with the second member. 11. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the vessel includes a notch portion and the shield is configured to engage the notch portion when the shield is pushed to the bottom of the vessel to hold the shield in the bottom of the vessel. 12. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the beverage pack includes a plurality of bores configured to align with the pins of the first member. 13. The device as claimed in claim 9, wherein the first sealing layer includes a plurality of groove portions, with the pins of the first member configured to extend through the groove portions. 14. The device as claimed in claim 9, including a second sealing layer located adjacent the first sealing layer. 15. The device as claimed in claim 14, wherein the second sealing layer includes groove portions through which the pins of the first member extend. 16. The device as claimed in claim 14, wherein an outside diameter of the second sealing layer is larger than an outside diameter of the first member such that the second sealing layer forms a flap-like portion extending beyond an outer circumference of the first member such that when the beverage device is pushed to the bottom of the vessel, the flap-like portion abuts the side of the vessel to create a substantially liquid impermeable barrier. 17. The device as claimed in claim 14, wherein the second sealing layer comprises material that becomes impermeable or swells in water such that the second sealing layer forms a substantially liquid impermeable barrier between the beverage pack and the first member. 18. A beverage device to be placed within a vessel having sides and a bottom to add flavor to a liquid in the vessel, the device comprising: a shield; and a beverage pack for adding flavor to the liquid, wherein the beverage pack is attached to the shield, wherein the shield includes: a first member having a plurality of pins projecting therefrom; a first sealing layer located adjacent the first member; a second sealing layer located adjacent the first sealing layer; and a second member having a plurality of bores configured to engage the pins on the first member to engage the first member with the second member, wherein when the shield is pushed to the bottom of the vessel, at least a portion of the shield abuts the sides of the vessel to hold the shield in the bottom of the vessel to substantially encapsulate the beverage pack at the bottom of the vessel. 19. The device as claimed in claim 18, w
