What they have in common
More than half of wonton wrapper's flavor molecules (73 of 103) also occur in chicken. Among the shared key aromas are acetaldehyde (pungent, ethereal) and phenylacetaldehyde (hawthorne, honey). Most of what they share is background chemistry many foods carry, so the overlap does little for the smell. Shared chemistry is a reason to try a pair, not a promise that it works on the plate.
