  • Formulation and Sensory Analysis of a Ketogenic Snack to Improve Compliance with Ketogenic Therapy
    Formulation and Sensory Analysis of a Ketogenic Snack to Improve Compliance with Ketogenic Therapy Russell J. Owen* College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, University of Florida Limited dietary choices in the ketogenic diet may compromise compliance and reduce overall quality of life, and the low provision of fiber may further diminish quality of life. The purpose of this study was to develop highly acceptable high fiber, ketogenic snacks. Broccoli bites and crab rangoon were developed approximately at a 3.5 to 1 ketogenic ratio. The snacks were formulated using fiber isolates, pea hull fiber, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and inulin as an alternative breading for frying. Sensory evaluation was carried out by students and staff at the University of Florida to determine the acceptability of overall taste, mouthfeel, and appearance of the snacks. Using a hedonic scaling method, panelists (n=67) determined acceptability, with 1 indicating extreme dislike, and 9 indicating extreme liking. For the broccoli bites, the mean hedonic rankings for overall taste, mouthfeel, and appearance were 6.54 ± 1.78 (mean ± SD), 6.27 ± 1.71, and 5.85 ± 1.73, respectively. For the crab rangoon, the mean hedonic rankings for overall taste, mouthfeel, and appearance were 5.60 ± 1.86, 4.93 ± 2.00, and 5.79 ± 1.78, respectively. In addition, hedonic rankings for the overall taste, mouthfeel, and appearance for the crab rangoon were rated as 6 (like slightly) or higher by 58.2%, 47.8%, and 67.2% of panelists, respectively. Hedonic rankings for the overall taste, mouthfeel, and appearance for the broccoli bites were rated as 6 (like slightly) or higher by 76.1%, 73.1%, and 62.7% of panelists, respectively.

This situation is extremely unsatisfactory and needs to be clarified. ^Ornebody may wonder to see that the definition of meat quality is placed into the analytical Session at this congress. However, it has to be stressed that meat quality as we will see it is lr>deed a matter of analytical measurements. Of course in the latter not only those methods are included which are well known in the classical chemical analysis but all methods available, giving us objective information about the subject "meat" in the widest sense. HISTORICAL APPROACHES: One of the best known and most quoted definitions of quality in connection with meat was given by Hammond (1955): "Quality can best be defi- aed as that which public likes best and for which they are prepared to pay more than ava- |a9e prices". ^iil show you later in this presentation that this interpretation which takes only the aspects Profit into the consideration cannot be accepted for scientific purposes.

  • Development of Pitanga Nectar with Different Sweeteners by Sensory
    ISSN 0101-2061 Food Science and Technology Development of pitanga nectar with different sweeteners by sensory analysis: Ideal pulp dilution, ideal sweetness, and sweetness equivalence Mírian Luisa Faria FREITAS1*, Mariana Borges de Lima DUTRA1, Helena Maria André BOLINI1 Abstract The objective of this study was to develop pitanga nectar formulations in which sucrose was replaced with different sweeteners. Consumer tests were conducted with 50 fruit juice consumers, and a just-about-right scale was used to determine the ideal pulp dilution and ideal sweetness with sucrose. Furthermore, the adequate concentrations of six sweeteners were determined to obtain the equivalent sweetness of sucrose using relative to these concentrations the magnitude estimation model with 19 selected assessors. The ideal dilution test resulted in 25% pulp, and the ideal sweetness test, 10% sucrose. Sweetener concentrations to replace sucrose were 0.0160%, 0.0541%, 0.1000%, 0.0999%, 0.0017%, and 0.0360%, respectively, for sucralose, aspartame, stevia 40% rebaudioside A, stevia 95% rebaudioside A, neotame, and a 2:1 cyclamate/saccharin blend. These results can be used to prepare pitanga nectar with different sweeteners and obtain the same sweetness intensity in less caloric products than that of nectar prepared with sucrose. Keywords: tropical fruit; beverage; just-about-right scale; magnitude estimation. 1 Introduction Many Brazilian fruits have great market potential; therefore, the healthy food or the presence of beneficial compounds as the studying processes that increase their value or their application most important factors for the consumption of food products in food products is of great interest.

  • Basic Statistical Concepts for Sensory Evaluation
    BASIC STATISTICAL CONCEPTS FOR SENSORY EVALUATION It is important when taking a sample or designing an experiment to remember that no matter how powerful the statistics used, the infer­ ences made from a sample are only as good as the data in that sample. No amount of sophisticated statistical analysis will make good data out of bad data. There are many scientists who try to disguise badly constructed experiments by blinding their readers with a com­ plex statistical analysis."-O'Mahony (1986, pp. 6, 8) INTRODUCTION The main body of this book has been concerned with using good sensory test methods that can generate quality data in well-designed and well-exe­ cuted studies. Now we turn to summarize the applications of statistics to sensory data analysis. Although statistics are a necessary part of sensory research, the sensory scientist would do well to keep in mind O'Mahony's admonishment: Statistical anlaysis, no matter how clever, cannot be used to save a poor experiment. The techniques of statistical analysis do, how­ ever, serve several useful purposes, mainly in the efficient summarization of data and in allowing the sensory scientist to make reasonable conclu- 647 648 SENSORY EVALUATION OF FOOD: PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES sions from the information gained in an experiment One of the most im­ portant conclusions is to help rule out the effects of chance variation in producing our results. "Most people, including scientists, are more likely to be convinced by phenomena that cannot readily be explained by a chance hypothesis" (Carver, 1978, p. 587). Statistics function in three important ways in the analysis and interpre­ tation of sensory data.

  • A Study of the Sensory Characteristics of Food Produced by the Sous Vide System: the Measure of Pleasure
    A Study of the Sensory Characteristics of Food produced by the Sous Vide System: The Measure of Pleasure. Philip George Creed A thesis submitted in partial fulfi lment of the requirements of Bournemouth University for the degree of Doctor ofPhilosophy October 1998 Bournemouth University Abstract Consumers now demand higher quality in all aspects of life. This has had a particular effect on the food industry where the need for quality encompasses both food safety and sensory characteristics. The sous vide process was developed to produce food on a large scale but with superior sensory qualities compared to the products of cook-chill and cook-freeze systems. This research aimed to determine whether the sous vide process could produce meals with superior sensory properties as claimed. A literature survey indicated that craft-based assessors (chefs) claimed improved qualities in sous vide products which were not consistently supported by sensory analysts (scientists). Empirical studies were conducted to test whether sous vide and conventionally processed dishes could be distinguished by untrained assessors in a controlled laboratory environment and with assessors in an ecologically valid environment, a restaurant. In the laboratory, the sous vide meals were easily distinguishable from and less acceptable than the conventionally produced dish. In the restaurant, few significant differences were found. Thus the ecologically valid environment of the restaurant where the many extrinsic factors affect consumers' perceptions, effectively masked differences between the sous vide and conventionally prepared meals. To explore the reasons for this, a survey (n188) was conducted to determine the relative importance of the intrinsic and extrinsic factors affecting the acceptability of foods when eating out.

  • PARKER, MEGAN NICOLE. Comparison of Natural Sweeteners in Protein Beverages Using Time-Intensity, Temporal Dominance of Sensations, and Temporal Check-All-That- Apply
    ABSTRACT PARKER, MEGAN NICOLE. Comparison of Natural Sweeteners in Protein Beverages using Time-Intensity, Temporal Dominance of Sensations, and Temporal Check-All-That- Apply. (Under the direction of Dr. Mary Drake). Protein beverage consumption by Americans has increased in recent years. Coupled with this increased consumption is an interest in natural sweeteners. Each sweetener has unique temporal properties that can influence beverage sensory properties and consumer acceptability. Iso-sweet concentrations of sweeteners (sucralose, sucrose, fructose, stevia, monk fruit) in ready-to-mix (RTM) vanilla whey protein beverages (25 g protein/12 oz. water) were established using magnitude estimation scaling and 2-alternative forced choice testing. Temporal sensory profiling was then conducted on each beverage by a trained panel using Time Intensity (TI), Temporal Dominance of Sensations (TDS), and Temporal Check- All-That-Apply (TCATA). These findings were used to formulate seven natural sweetener blends that more closely matched the temporality of sucrose sweetened RTM vanilla protein beverages. These blends were also subjected to temporal sensory profiling in RTM beverages. One sugar free blend (25% stevia/75% monk fruit) and one reduced sugar blend (25% stevia/25% monk fruit/25% fructose) were then selected for consumer testing, in addition to 3 control RTM beverages containing sucralose, stevia, or monk fruit. A two-day crossover design study (n=150 consumers) was conducted to investigate the impact of priming statements about sweetener as well as sweetener source on consumer acceptance of RTM protein beverages. Two distinct consumer clusters were identified. The ‘label conscious’ segment of consumers preferred beverages sweetened with natural blends when primed.
