Increased viscosity can reduce taste perception in sweet and salty solutions.
“Christensen [124] first suggested that increased viscosity can reduce taste perception in sweet and salty solutions.”
From The Role of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Sensory Factors in Sweetness Perception of Food and Beverages: A Review (2019) · cites this paper as [124]
The opening section reports reduced perceived sweetness and saltiness in some CMC-thickened solutions. But the General Discussion says viscosity per se did not reduce taste intensity; the reductions depended on the thickener and occurred chiefly in weak-tasting solutions. The paper also describes earlier studies reporting such reductions, so it does not support calling Christensen the first to suggest them. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
