Abstract
Interspecific American-European hazelnut (Corylus americana × C. avellana) hybrids are being developed for the Upper Midwest region of the United States, which have potential economic and ecological benefits. Currently, researchers are working on pre-commercialization initiatives to create a local hazelnut industry. However, a lack of knowledge on the sensory characteristics and consumer acceptability of the hybrid hazelnuts have been identified as potential limitations to production. This study investigated consumer responses to hybrid hazelnuts, employing hedonic ratings and check-all-that-apply (CATA) questions. Twelve roasted hazelnut hybrids were subjected to consumer evaluation for liking (aroma, color, flavor, texture, and overall) and aroma and flavor descriptors. Consumers also evaluated two European hazelnut varieties for comparative purposes. Liking scores were significantly different (p < 0.05) across different hybrid varieties and when comparing specific hybrids with European varieties. CATA sensory profiles specific to different varieties were also observed and discriminating attributes were identified using multiple-response methodologies. Penalty analysis based on CATA further identified the attributes roasty, hazelnut-like, caramel-like, chocolate-like, sweet, and salty as primary drivers of aroma/flavor liking, while earthy, burnt, and bitter were identified as primary drivers of disliking. Overall, unique flavors that impacted liking were found in hybrid hazelnuts and, when compared with European hazelnuts, provided insights for breeding and post-processing strategies to optimize product quality.

Abstract
This study compared check-all-that-apply (CATA) and rating methods using simple flavor foods and determined the discrimination ability of two consumer-based methods. Orange juice (simple flavor and liquid) and yogurt (simple flavor and semi-solid) samples were used. Six samples with different flavors and textures were evaluated for each food group. One hundred twenty consumers participated in each food session. CATA and rating were performed in two visits at weekly intervals. Consumers in each session distinguished the sample characteristics, and similar results were obtained using the CATA and rating methods. Although the number of characteristics with a significant difference in the rating method was relatively higher than that of CATA, some attributes with low frequency and intensity values may not have a significant effect on sample discrimination. Therefore, the types of questionnaire should be selected considering the test objectives and how similar the samples were.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of celiac disease and gluten intolerance has led to an increased demand for gluten-free food products in Peru. The research objective was to develop gluten-free cookies from substitute flours, evaluating their physicochemical and sensory parameters. Eight formulations were developed using 100% broad bean, chickpea, pea, kiwicha, quinoa, lentil, corn, and bean flour. One hundred consumers participated in this evaluation (59% women and 41% men). A completely randomized design (CRD) and a randomized complete block design (RCBD) were used for physicochemical analysis and acceptability, respectively. To describe the sensory characteristics of the cookies, Cochran's Q-test and correspondence analysis (CA) were performed. From the results obtained, the lentil cookie presented the highest amount of protein and fiber but lower fat and carbohydrate contents compared to the other samples. In terms of color, the corn cookie was the lightest, with greater luminosity (L*), less redness (a*), and greater yellowness (b*). Regarding the sensory analysis, the CATA questions allowed us to form six groups, and the samples with the greatest acceptability were the corn and chickpea cookies, which were rated as "I like them." Lentil flour crackers are a nutritionally adequate option, and corn flour crackers are highly sensorially acceptable, suggesting commercial opportunities for softer and more flavorful gluten-free products. However, it is crucial to continue researching and developing innovative products to meet changing market demands and offer healthier and more attractive options to consumers.

Nguyen QC, Castura JC, Nguyen DDL, Varela P. Identifying temporal sensory drivers of liking of biscuit supplemented with brewer's spent grain for young consumers. Food Res Int 2023; 170:113049. [PMID: 37316030 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Brewer's spent grain (BSG), a by-product of the brewing industry, has great potential as food additive. BSG is particularly rich in protein and fibre content which makes it an ideal nutritional fortifier for biscuits. However, adding BSG to biscuits can lead to changes in sensory perception and consumer acceptance. This study explored the temporal sensory profiles and drivers/inhibitors of liking in BSG-fortified biscuits. Six biscuit formulations were obtained from a design with factors oat flake particle size (three levels: 0.5 mm, small commercial flakes, large commercial flakes) and baking powder (two levels: with, without). Consumers (n = 104) tasted the samples, described their dynamic sensory perception using the Temporal Check-All-That-Apply (TCATA) method, and rated their liking on a 7-point categorical scale. The Clustering around Latent Variables (CLV) approach was used to group consumers into two clusters based on their preferences. The temporal sensory profiles and drivers/inhibitors of liking were investigated within each cluster. Foamy and Easy-to-swallow were sensory drivers of liking for both groups of consumers. However, inhibitors of liking were different in the two clusters: Dense and Hard-to-swallow for one cluster and Chewy, Hard-to-swallow and Hard for the other cluster. These findings give evidence that manipulating oat particle size and presence/absence of baking powder changes BSG-fortified biscuits' sensory profiles and consumer preferences. A complementary analysis of the area-under-curve of the TCATA data and inspection of individual temporal curves showed the dynamics of perception and showed how oat particle size and presence/absence of baking powder affected consumer perception and acceptance of BSG-fortified biscuits. The methods proposed in this paper can be further applied to understand how enriching products with ingredients that would otherwise go to waste affects acceptance in different consumer segments.

Abstract
Coffee, one of the most produced and consumed beverage in the world, has a range of variability in its quality. The aim of this work was to evaluate the consumer capacity to perceive the coffee quality through their fragrance and to verify the influence of previous information about quality on this perception using hedonic scale and Check All That Apply (CATA) sensory tests. The sensory tests were performed in two stages, one without and the other with quality related information of Mogiana coffee samples (Rio, Hard and Soft), and a traditional coffee sample. CATA attributes frequency of occurrence shows that samples discrimination could be done with specific attributes. For Soft coffee the attributes with more occurrence were sweet, caramel, brown sugar, and smooth. The Hard coffee sample was described by the attributes peanut, buttery, and chocolate. While for Rio coffee, the descriptive attributes most often mentioned were strong and burnt. The traditional sample stood out among consumers for its characteristics of old, medicine, sour, burnt, unpleasant and spicy. Therefore, the use of coffee powder fragrance can be alternative to differentiate the quality of the product and its function can be enhanced by passing on information on quality attributes to consumers.

Abstract
Sensory science is a multidisciplinary field that encompasses a wide variety of established and newly developed tests to document human responses to stimuli. Sensory tests are not limited to the area of food science but they find wide application within the diverse areas of the food science arena. Sensory tests can be divided into two basic groups: analytical tests and affective tests. Analytical tests are generally product-focused, and affective tests are generally consumer-focused. Selection of the appropriate test is critical for actionable results. This review addresses an overview of sensory tests and best practices.

Abstract
Roasting cocoa beans by means of microwave radiations seems to be a potential alternative to convection roasting, but little is known about the impact of this method on the perceived flavor profile of the chocolate. Therefore, this research focused on revealing the flavor perception of chocolate produced with microwave roasted cocoa beans assessed by both a trained panel and chocolate consumers. Samples of 70% dark chocolate produced from cocoa beans microwave roasted at 600 W for 35 min were compared with samples of 70% dark chocolate produced from cocoa beans convectively roasted at 130 °C for 30 min. Non-significant differences (p > 0.05) in the measured physical properties, such as color, hardness, melting, and flow behavior, showed that chocolate produced from microwave roasted cocoa beans can exhibit the same physical qualities as convection roasted chocolate. Moreover, combined discriminative triangle tests, with 27 judgements in total, performed by a trained panel, showed that each type of chocolate exhibited distinctive characteristics (d'-value = 1.62). Regarding the perceived flavor, "cocoa aroma" was cited as significantly higher for the chocolate produced from microwave roasted cocoa beans (n = 112) compared to chocolate produced from convection roasted cocoa beans (n = 100) by consumers. Both preference and willingness to buy were higher, though insignificant at a 5% level, for the microwave roasted chocolate. A final potential benefit (studied in this research) of microwave roasting cocoa beans is the reduced energy consumption, which was estimated at 75%. Taking all these results together, the microwave roasting of cocoa is shown to be a promising alternative to convection roasting.

Abstract
Insect oil is a valuable fraction that is obtained from insect processing. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of yellow mealworm oil (YMW) oil (crude, deodorized, and blended with vegetable oil) on the sensory evaluation and aroma profile of fried dough. The sensory evaluation was performed in a sensory lab (central location test, CLT) and at home in order to examine how the evaluation environment or context impacts consumer perceptions. The strongest liking and preference were found for the donuts that were fried in 100% deodorized YMW oil and in YMW oil blended with vegetable oil. The evaluation environment did not affect overall liking scores but had an impact on sensory profiling, with more discriminating sensory terms observed for the test that was conducted at the sensory lab than for the test that was conducted at home. A distinctive profile of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) was found for every fried dough. The discrimination between VOCs and other frying oils that were observed is well in line with the sensory descriptors and the consumer test results. Acetic acid, acetic acid ethenyl ester, and tetrahydro-6-propyl-2H-Pyran-2-one were present in the doughs that were fried in crude YMW oil and in its blend with vegetable oil. They were absent from deodorized YMW oil and from its blend with vegetable oil. This study shows that, as far as fried donuts are concerned, deodorized YMW oil is an alternative to a vegetable oil-the two lead to similar sensorial experiences and preferences. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Yellow mealworm oil (YMW) oil is a co-product of insect protein that can be valorized in the food industry. In the present study, it is demonstrated that the deodorization of YMW oil produces positive sensorial experiences and increases consumer acceptance of insect-based food. Furthermore, findings indicate that consumer testing at home yields similar acceptance and preference ratings suggesting that this type of testing may be an alternative means of collecting reliable consumer data.

Abstract
The most abundant Orthoptera in Mexico is a small grasshopper (Sphenarium
purpurascens) which is considered a food source with increased
nutritional value due to its high protein content. Insect proteins have gained
relevance because of their high potential as gelling, texturing, and extender
agents in the food industry. The objective of this study was to evaluate the
effect of substituting meat with a soluble protein extract from grasshopper
obtained by alkalisation or alkalisation-piezoelectric ultrasound, on the
techno-functional, physicochemical, and sensory characteristics of cooked meat
models (sausages). The soluble protein was extracted in NaHCO3 pH 8
and a piezoelectric ultrasound 5-mm sonotrode at 20 kHz with 99%
amplitude. Different formulations with meat substitution: 0%, 5%,
10%, and 15% were prepared and characterised for their rheological
behaviour, emulsion stability, weight loss by cooking, total protein content,
colour, and texture. Sensory evaluation was conducted with consumers using a
test involving check-all-that-apply and overall liking. The
alkalisation-piezoelectric ultrasound method improved the solubility and the
techno-functional properties of the soluble grasshopper protein when applied in
sausages at maximum levels of 10% meat substitution. The sensory
evaluation indicated that the formulation with 5% meat substitution
exhibited the same acceptability as the control sample. Given these results, the
soluble protein treated with alkalisation and piezoelectric ultrasound could be
used as an extender in meat products.

Abstract
Grapes and grape/wine byproducts such as non-fermented/semi-fermented or fermented grapes, skins, and seeds are a rich source of polyphenols, known to have nutraceutical properties. Grape byproducts present a great potential for the development of new beverages, such as infusions and tisanes. This work aimed to study the effects of different drying temperatures on the sensory and chemical properties of fermented grape pomace infusions, and to evaluate the same sensory and chemical characteristics on infusions of dried–minced grapes coated with different organic matrices. At the end of the work, it was possible to conclude that the presence of some coating agents results in changes in the sensory characteristics of the infusions, also altering the recorded antioxidant activity. However, all matrices seemed suitable for coating, and none showed negative characteristics in the infusions. Furthermore, of the three infusions (50, 60, and 70 °C), the one prepared with dehydrated grape pomace at 70 °C was the one with the highest pH value, highest °Brix value, and significantly greater concentration of phenolic compounds. In the sensory analysis, the constant presence of a bitter taste and astringent sensation stood out, which are not positive aspects from a sensory point of view. However, the addition of natural flavors—especially honey—made the infusion more sensorially pleasant. Overall, grape pomace dehydrated at 70 °C made it possible to obtain a product with phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity that is more promising to integrate into human food, particularly via the preparation of infusions. Furthermore, the consumer may, if they so choose, add honey or another agent as a natural flavoring, making the final infusion more pleasant from a sensory point of view.

Physicochemical and Sensory Characteristics of Sausages Made with Grasshopper (Sphenarium purpurascens) Flour. Foods 2022; 11:foods11050704. [PMID: 35267337 PMCID: PMC8909260 DOI: 10.3390/foods11050704] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Insects are currently of interest due to their high nutritional value, in particular for the high concentration of quality protein. Moreover, it can also be used as an extender or binder in meat products. The objective was to evaluate grasshopper flour (GF) as a partial or total replacement for potato starch to increase the protein content of sausages and achieve good acceptability by consumers. GF has 48% moisture, 6.7% fat and 45% total protein. Sausages were analyzed by NIR and formulations with GF in all concentrations (10, 7, 5 and 3%) combined with starch (3, 5 and 7%) increased protein content. Results obtained for the sausages formulations with grasshoppers showed an increase in hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness through a Texture-Profile-Analysis. Moreover, a* and b* are similar to the control, but L* decreased. The check-all-that-apply test showed the attributes highlighted for sausages with GF possessed herbal flavor, brown color, and granular texture. The liking-product-landscape map showed that the incorporation of 7 and 10% of GF had an overall liking of 3.2 and 3.3, respectively, considered as “do not like much”. GF can be used as a binder in meat products up to 10% substitution. However, it is important to improve the overall liking of the sausage.

Abstract
Sensory science provides objective information about the consumer understanding of a product, the acceptance or rejection of stimuli, and the description of the emotions evoked. It is possible to answer how consumers perceive a product through discriminative and descriptive techniques. However, perception can change over time, and these fluctuations can be measured with time-intensity methods. Instrumental sensory devices and immersive techniques are gaining headway as sensory profiling techniques. The authors of this paper critically review sensory techniques from classical descriptive analysis to the emergence of novel profiling methods. Though research has been done in the creation of new sensory methods and comparison of those methods, little attention has been given to the timeline approach and its advantages and challenges. This study aimed to gather, explain, simplify, and discuss the evolution of sensory techniques.

Abstract
Capturing and understanding consumers' perceptions is not a simple quest, particularly for wine, which is one of the most complex beverages. In contrast to the increasing amount of wine import and consumption, studies on how Korean consumers perceive wine characteristics are limited. In this study, two different consumer-based questionnaires, check-all-that-apply (CATA) and rating, were used to compare the discrimination ability of samples and attributes. Consumer data were analyzed and compared to investigate whether the difference in the degree of familiarity with consumption frequency affects wine perception and preference. Consumers discriminated samples and attributes by sample using both scales, CATA and rating. It was confirmed that the CATA citation frequency reflected the rated intensity of the attributes in this study. Consumers who checked or did not check the CATA response rated the intensity of attributes differently. Different consumer subgroups based on familiarity also discriminated the samples effectively. However, users had a higher configuration similarity between the two questionnaires than non-users. Furthermore, the preference for wine might be affected by the degree of familiarity.

Abstract
Introducing processed insects in food products is seen as a way to lower the barrier for insect consumption by Western consumers. Prior research indicated that crude insect lipids could partially replace butter in bakery products without influencing consumer's perception, but a complete substitution remained a challenge due to the presence of off-flavors. This study proposes oil deodorization as a means to reduce insect oil off-flavors and increase insect oil replacement in food products. We compared the effect of deodorization of yellow mealworm (YMW, Tenebrio molitor) oil on the partial and total replacement of vegetable oil in crackers and hummus. In total 253 participants joined the study (127 crackers study, 126 hummus study). Each participant evaluated 5 samples, 100% vegetable oil, 100% crude YMW oil, 100% deodorized YMW oil, 50% vegetable & 50% crude YMW oil and 50% vegetable & 50% deodorized YMW oil. Results showed that deodorized YMW oil could replace vegetable oil in both products without changing the overall food experience, liking and visual appearance in the products. In contrast, using crude YMW oil impacted the overall liking and certain sensory attributes, mostly related to flavor. Moreover, the use of deodorized YMW eliminated visual differences amongst the products. When YMW oil was used in a dispersion-like food, such as hummus, a less firm, more spreadable and less sticky hummus was obtained. Crude YMW oil also reduced hardness in low-moisture solid foods, such as crackers but further studies are necessary to fully understand this effect.

Foods 2020; 9:foods9111566.

Abstract
Check All That Apply (CATA) has become a popular type of questionnaire response in sensory/consumer research in recent years. However, some authors have pointed out potential problems with the method. An online survey using either a Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) or Check-All-Statements (CAS) format for questions was conducted to provide a deeper understanding of the response data using the two question formats. With CATA, respondents select all terms or statements that apply from a given list, while, with CAS, respondents must respond (e.g., yes/no or agree/disagree) to each term or statement to show that it applies or does not apply. Respondents from five countries (Brazil, China, India, Spain, and the USA) were randomly assigned one of the two question formats (N = 200 per country per method). Motivations for eating items that belong to five food groups (starchy, protein, dairy, fruits, and desserts) were assessed. Results showed that CAS had higher percentages of “agree” responses than CATA. Also, the response ratio of CAS and CATA data was different, suggesting that interpretations of the data from each response type would also be different. Respondents in the USA, China, and Spain took longer to complete the CAS questionnaire, while respondents in Brazil and India had similar time durations for the two question formats. Overall, the CATA format was liked slightly more than the CAS format and fewer respondents dropped out of the survey when using the CATA response type. These findings suggest that the CATA format is quick and relatively easy for consumers to complete. However, it provokes fewer “apply” responses, which some psychologists suggest underestimates applicable terms or statements and CATA provides a different interpretation of data than the CAS format that requires consumers to respond to each term or statement. Further, CAS may overestimate the applicable terms. Consumer insights collected using CATA and CAS can lead to different decisions due to differences in data interpretation by researchers (e.g., marketers, nutritionists, product developers, and sensory scientists). More investigation is needed for the CATA and CAS question formats.
