The impact of perceptual interactions on perceived flavor

Delwiche, Jeannine·2004·Food Quality and Preference

Abstract

When eating or drinking, the individual experiences a multitude of sensations, including taste, smell, touch, temperature, sight, sound, and sometimes pain/irritation. This multi-faceted sensory experience is the underpinning of perceived flavor, although certainly some sensations contribute more than others. This paper reviews how all these sensations interact, both on a perceptual and a physical level, and discusses the resulting impact each has on flavor ratings. Interactions between taste and smell, and interactions of the remaining sensations will be discussed. Finally, practical implications of these interactions for sensory evaluation are discussed.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • A disconfirmation of expectations occurs when the perceived liking after consumption is below the expected liking, which may occur when the visual cues misrepresent the taste, odor, and flavor of the product.

    “A disconfirmation of expectations occurs when the perceived liking after consumption is below the expected liking, which may occur when the visual cues misrepresent the taste, odor, and flavor of the product [39].”
  • Both food-intrinsic sensory factors and food-extrinsic factors play a role in determining whether we accept and how we perceive food and beverages.

    “Alarge body of research now supports the view that both food-intrinsic sensory factors (e.g., product colour, aroma, texture, viscosity, etc.) as well as food-extrinsic factors (e.g., visual, olfactory, and tactile”
  • Aromas such as caramel, vanilla, and berry flavours increase the perception of sweetness, at least in Western participants.

    “Aromas such as caramel, vanilla, and berry flavours have been found to increase the perception of sweetness, at least in Western participants (e.g., [2,44,45,93-100], see References [1,101] for reviews).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
