  • Effect of Substitution of Rice Flour with Quinoa Flour on the Chemical
    foods Article Effect of Substitution of Rice Flour with Quinoa Flour on the Chemical-Physical, Nutritional, Volatile and Sensory Parameters of Gluten-Free Ladyfinger Biscuits Michela Cannas, Simone Pulina, Paola Conte, Alessandra Del Caro, Pietro Paolo Urgeghe , Antonio Piga * and Costantino Fadda Dipartimento di Agraria, Università degli Studi di Sassari, Viale Italia 39/A, 07100 Sassari, Italy; [email protected] (M.C.); [email protected] (S.P.); [email protected] (P.C.); [email protected] (A.D.C.); [email protected] (P.P.U.); [email protected] (C.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0792-9272 Received: 27 May 2020; Accepted: 17 June 2020; Published: 19 June 2020 Abstract: The present study investigates the effect of partial or total substitution of rice flour (RF) with quinoa flour (QF) (at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) on the chemical-physical, nutritional, and sensory characteristics, as well as the volatile compounds, of ladyfinger biscuits. All quinoa-based formulations positively affected the crust colour, endowing it with lower ‘lightness’ and higher ‘redness’ values, giving the biscuits a more appealing crust colour. Biscuits with higher percentages of QF also had better structure, as they were softer. The substitution of RF with QF significantly improved the nutritional profile of the biscuits, as a result of the increase in protein, lipid, ash, total soluble (SP) and insoluble polyphenol (IP), flavonoid, and antioxidant activity levels, which increased linearly with the substitution rate. Quinoa supplementation led to an increase in volatile compounds that were nearly always characterised by positive olfactory attributes. Sensory analysis revealed that the maximal substitution rate of QF able to maintain an adequate consumer acceptability rating is probably 50%, as higher percentages impaired acceptability due to the presence of herbaceous and bitter tastes, even if the consumers also rated these samples as healthier and softer to touch.

  • Girl Scout Responses to Social and Sensitive Issues FINAL.Docx
    Girl Scout Responses to Social and Sensitive Issues During Girl Scout Cookie Season (typically January through early March in most areas), we tend to see an uptick in false news connected to Girl Scouts. You may also encounter challenges at booth sales. Please use the information below to help dispel myths about Girl Scouts and the Girl Scout Cookie Program. If questions go beyond your comfortable response, please direct customers to reach out to [email protected] The Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest fundraiser for our Girl Scouts - with 100% of the proceeds remaining in our council to benefit girls through council hosted programs and properties, service unit funds and troop proceeds to fund troop-based activities. SAFETY The safety and protection of girls and adult volunteers and our customers is a top priority. Several safety guidelines are established to keep girls safe when selling cookies online, door-to-door, or at community cookie booths. These guidelines are published and distributed to each participating family. We do not tolerate individuals who harass girls at cookie booths. In the instance that individuals or groups attending a Girl Scout Cookie sale make girls, volunteers, or staff uncomfortable, we will call law enforcement. COVID Safety Girls and families are given options when participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program so they can determine the pathway that is right for them. Girls and volunteers who exhibit signs of illness may not participate in booth and door-to-door sales and deliveries. Digital Cookie: With the help of her parent/caregiver, a Girl Scout sets up Digital Cookie to sell online.
