nonacidic
Not sour tasting
Nonacidic describes substances that are not acidic—either neutral or alkaline.
The term appears most often in chemistry, medicine, and food contexts: nonacidic foods like bananas and melons, a nonacidic cleaning solution.
In gastroenterology, nonacidic reflux refers to stomach contents that rise without the burning associated with acid.
