A bomb calorimeter is used to test the caloric content of foods. The standard method is to burn a food sample in a special bomb, and to measure the calories given off as it's turned into carbon dioxide, water and heat. Caffeine content is tested on a high per formance liquid chromatograph. Mello Yellow was chosen, Wilson explained, because it seemingly contained more of such ingredients as food dye, caffeine and coloring than the other leading soft drinks and would therefore be easier to test. Finally, consumer testing for a new line of low-fat and fat-free products will be done in the student center within the next two or three weeks. The products are brand new and only marketed in a few states so far. The mock consumer testing conducted by Har ding students will be sent to the company and serve as pilot testing for the product in Arkansas.
