To develop customized food products for gastric cancer patients, it is crucial to understand their dietary characteristics and changes in their perception of smell and taste due to their condition. This study conducted in-depth interviews and administered olfactory and gustatory tests on 20 patients with gastric cancer. A control group of 20 healthy, gender and age matched individuals, was included for comparison. Patients reported difficulties in sustaining their appetite, particularly during chemotherapy. This could be attributed to gastrointestinal discomfort and an altered perception of smell and taste. The olfactory test revealed that cancer patients were significantly less sensitive than the control group. Also, a smaller number of participants in the cancer group were reported to have a normal taste function, which enabled them to perceive umami, one of the five basic taste compared to those in the control group. These findings demonstrated that gastric cancer patients experience post-surgical digestive issues, chemotherapy-induced changes in smell and taste, and appetite loss. To improve the quality of life of these patients and the efficacy of the treatment, it is necessary to consider not only their nutritional requirements but also other factors such as appetite loss and discomfort when developing meals specifically for them.

There have been many discussions on the importance and part of quality in the marketing field. It also has been an effort in the cooking field to understand how the quality, recognized by customers, influences customer satisfaction in the process of serving western food. This study is a theory about evaluation methods of western food. It can be summarized in three views as below especially with sensuous evaluation methods. First, it is decoration. Visual factors, such as a receptacle and the amount of food in it, the arrangement of food colors, gloss of food, steam arising of from food, additional garnishes on food should be harmonious. Second, it is a flavor. The factors like the taste and smell of food, and feeling of food in the mouth can be evaluated with the taste and the smell. Third, it is texture. It is considered with the sense of touch, the motor sensation in the mouth and the hearing sense. Especially the sense of touch involves feel of receptacle when it is hot or cold as well as feel of food. This study has been conducted for providing customers with higher-quality western food, which is based on a theoretical study about evaluation methods. During the study, the limit was found that there is no measuring instrument, since the study was restricted in a theoretical work. For more accurate research, the measuring instrument should be developed through the positive research.

The objective of this study was to determine of the meal and service quality satisfaction of University foodservice institutions. 462 University students in the Seoul area were surveyed between October 14 and 21, 2002. The result of this study showed that $63.9\%$ of University students were eating 1-4 times per week at University foodservice institutions. The main reasons for eating at University foodservice institutions were inexpensive price $(60.8\%)$ and economy of time $(31.8\%)$. The reasons for not eating at University foodservice institutions were tasteless food $(50.3\%)$ and dissatisfaction with the menu $(22.7\%)$. Most University students $(75.5\%)$ considered taste of food in selecting from the menu. An importance-performance analysis of the meals served at University foodservice institutions showed that variety of the menu and taste of the food were of poor performance, but of high importance. The service quality of University foodservice institutions using a modified Servqual model were tangibles(-0.83), empathy(-1.05), reliability(-1.09) and assurance(-1.13) in decreasing order.

Aloe is an attractive potential food source because it has functional uses. It has been widely used as a well-being food and drink. The antioxidant activity was estimated by measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activity. We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies prepared by adding various concentrations of aloe powder (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, all w/w) as a substitute for flour. In this study, the DPPH free radical scavenging activity, moisture content, and hardness of cookies significantly increased with increasing aloe powder, while the pH, spread factor and L and b values slightly decreased. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of texture were shown to be very similar statistically, but color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability scores were lower than the control. As a result of this study, the quality of cookies with the addition of 1% aloe powder were the most suitable in terms of taste, flavor, texture, and sensory properties.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of chestnut powder on antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of cookies. Cookies were prepared using different amounts of chestnut powder (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% to the flour quantity). The antioxidant activity was estimated by measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activity and the total phenolic content in chestnut powder and cookies. In addition, the quality characteristics of the chestnut cookies were estimated based on: the bulk density and pH of the dough, spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, color, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluations. The spread ratio, a values, total polyphenol contents, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of cookies significantly increased with increasing chestnut powder (p<0.001), while the leavening rate, L values, b values and hardness of the cookies significantly decreased with increasing chestnut powder (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation scores for the 15% chestnut powder cookie groups ranked significantly higher (p<0.05) than the other groups in overall preference, appearance, taste, color, chestnut taste, oily flavor, and aftertaste. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that chestnut powder is a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and functionality of cookies.
