Sensory Characteristics and Classification of Commercial and Experimental Plain Yogurts SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AND CLASSIFICATION OF COMMERCIAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PLAIN YOGURTS by MARISSA BROWN B.S., University of Delaware, 2008 A THESIS 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. Delores Chambers Department of Human Nutrition Abstract This research aimed to determine the sensory characteristics of commercially-available plain yogurts and examine how three "more sustainable" prototypes compared. Three experimental non-fat set-style yogurts were provided – one control and two samples that differed in fermentation time. These shortened fermentation times could result in energy reductions and potentially substantiate a “sustainable” marketing claim, a concept gaining traction with consumers. Twenty-six commercially-available yogurts varying in percent milk fat, milk type (organic or conventional), and processing (set- style, stirred, or strained/Greek-style) were also included. Using descriptive sensory analysis, a six-person highly-trained panel scored the intensity of 25 flavor, six texture, four mouthfeel, and two mouthcoating attributes on a 15-point numerical scale. Three replications were conducted, and all samples were tested at least 10 days prior to the end of their shelf-lives. The samples differed for 19 flavor and all texture, mouthfeel, and mouthcoating attributes. Cluster analysis indicated approximately seven flavor and five texture (texture, mouthfeel, and mouthcoating combined) clusters, resulting in 15 unique combinations of flavor and texture. Although no legal definitions exist for “sustainable,” the prototypes’ sensory characteristics were comparable to those of top- selling yogurts indicating potential market viability. This research also demonstrated potential growth opportunities. Despite the current diversity, several combinations of flavor and texture were not represented.

  • Project Agape September 2020 #2 Newsletter
    Subscribe Past Issues Translate RSS View this email in your browser Agricultural Development on the Rise September Newsletter #2 Dear <<First Name>>, The months of August and September recorded an increase in productivity regarding the “Agricultural Development Project,” along with the “Distribution Project.” Four socially vulnerable families in four diverse villages received four cows that were delivered to them. One of the cows was named Deborah after the request of a person who donated it to a family connected with the Project AGAPE. Hrair Tatincyan and his family received Deborah in a village called Karegah, located about ten miles from Berdzor. The former is a veteran, having several wounds from the 4-day war of 2016. Hrair did not stay indifferent to the danger knocking at the eastern and southwestern gates of his homeland, so without any hesitation, he decided to join one of the many groups of volunteers to protect his country’s remnants. His wife is an account, who unfortunately cannot find a job in the village. The family struggles to live on the pension that Hrair receives as a handicapped person. “I cannot sit without doing anything; I should work. I am so grateful for such an amazing contribution to my family. The only way to show my gratitude is to take good care of the cow that will feed my children, grow my farm, and then help a family like ours...” – Hrair Another family that received a cow belongs to Andranik Mikaelyan, living in Vakunis, a village located in the northeastern part of Kashatagh. Andranik and his wife Alina have eight children: five sons and three daughters.

A further lockdown, which would undoubtedly be imposed if the infection figures were to flare up again, would in all probability be the death knell for large parts of industry and the economy. But even so, there will be enormous upheavals when the world awakens from isolation. The threat of millions of jobs being lost or already lost will not exactly encourage people to spend money. People will have to economize on consumption and, by force, on every- thing else. In addition, global milk exports will fall, because the oil-producing countries in Roland Sossna particular are short of money due to the drop in oil prices and will be unable to act develop Editor IDM significant demand for the time being.

The use of milk is general and not limited to any class or locality; it is regarded as a necessity by almost every family and because of this, we cannot glean too much information regard- ing it. This is doubly important when we think of the failure of Americans to appreciate the food value of milk and its products. Although this is one of the greatest dairy countries in the world, it does not lead in the per capita consumption of dairy products. In some of the older European countries two or three times as much milk and cheese is consumed per capita as in the United States. However, the average consumption of milk is high in many parts of this country, and, assisted by improved methods of production and transportation, it seems to be increasing. Milk contains all the ingredients needed for nourishment; that is, it furnishes the materials which build up the body and keep it in repair, and also those which supply it with fuel to keep it warm. and to furnish the energy needed to do its work.
