This is my first visit to Singapore and I am completely impressed with the Icountry’s beauty, cleanliness and the round-the-clock energy. What captivated my attention, as soon as I landed here, was the absolute cleanliness reflected across the country. Right from Changi Airport, which is a tourist attraction in itself, for its spectacular architecture, to the small lanes; this cleanliness can be seen everywhere. It is inspiring to see how the authorities maintain this orderliness and neatness. I have observed how the system has ingrained this habit of cleanliness in the people of Singapore. The rules and fine system ensure that everyone follows this discipline. Another thing that drew my attention was the greenery that has been maintained everywhere. I would consider this incredible and the biggest tourist attraction.

    DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF A SORGHUM TISANE by ANGELA LYNN DODD B.S., Kansas State University, 2008 A REPORT submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Food Science KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2010 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Fadi Aramouni Dept. of Animal Science & Industry Abstract Known for its antioxidant activity and other health benefits, tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world, following water. With up to 6% (w/w) of phenolic compounds, sorghum has the highest content compared to other cereals. The objective of this research was to develop and analyze a sorghum tisane using two different red sorghum hybrids. Tisanes are herbal infusions composed of anything other than the leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant. The sorghum kernel was cracked using an Allis experimental roll stand equipped with a Le Page cut mill. Samples were sifted at 180 RMP- 4” diameter throw for 2 min. The two hybrids were roasted in a Whirlpool convection oven at 212°C for 13 or 15 min. Three fruit and herbal combinations were tested to increase consumer acceptability. Samples was brewed for 4 min in 8fl.oz at 100°C. Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity(ORAC) and Total Phenolic Content (TPC) were used to analyze the beverage along with chemical, physical and sensory tests. TPC results showed sorghum tisane to have 38.5±6.91 mg gallic acid equivalence/ 8fl oz. and 433.7 ±7.11 μM Trolox equivalence/ 236.6 mL (8 fl.oz, 1 cup) for an ORAC value. Fruit and herbal combinations were also added to the sorghum to increase overall consumer acceptability.

Vol 26 No. 4 Holliston, Massachusetts Fall, 2017 Understanding Taste The Quest for Flavor TEA-TASTERS DECIDING UPON THE QUALITY AND VALUE OF A NEW CARGO IN A WHOLESALE WAREHOUSE A sketch from Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper, February 12, 1876. W hen professional tea-tasters sip a spoonful of tea, they do so with an enthusiastic slurp that would be considered inappropriate at the dinner table. In an interview published at businessdailynews.com, veteran Tetley tea-taster, Sebastian Michaelis, described the slurping as sounding “pretty horrendous if you’ve not heard it before.” Whether or not the average tea-taster understands the complex flavor cognition system that Gordon M. Shepherd refers to as the human brain flavor system, they have known for over a century that exposing the retronasal receptors to tea vapors, with a pretty horrendous sounding slurp, is essential to proper tea evaluation.
