Psychorheology of low-fat spreads

Statistically significant relations, either linear or semilogarithmic,were obtained between the rheological and sensory data. A close linear relationship between the sensory texture and the flavour was observed. On the basis of the rheological and sensory measurements, it may be concluded that the rheometry could be used for the prediction of the texture and flavour acceptances of fat emulsions with a fair degree of accuracy
