This article indicates that the perceptions on the quality of agro-food are socially constructed. Farmers who were producing red pepper in Eumsung county had somewhat different perceptions on the quality of red pepper according to their own marketing channels. Farmers who were selling their red pepper to consumers by direct marketing tend to think the quality attributes more important as follows; information on producers, ingredients, taste and smell, amount of pesticides input, cleaning the harvested red pepper, quality certification by public authority, and brands. Consumers tend to think safety and production area more important, while farmers tend to think the quality attributes as follows; taste, color, variety, soil environment, and largeness. Based on these research findings, we can give some recommendations as follows; 1) the agricultural extension organization in the Eumsung county should change the strategy for local agriculture towards quality management of red peppers. and 2) the local government need to examine the feasibility of quality certifying on red pepper.

This study was performed to aid promotion of fish paste containing Lycii fructus powder as a food. The tested concentrations of Lycii fructus powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. The L values of the samples decreased as the concentration of Lycii fructus powder increased(p<0.001), and the a- and b-value increased(p<0.001). All samples with 3 mm of thickness had good flexibility and did not break even after four times of folding. In texture meter tests, the cohesiveness increased, but gumminess and brittleness decreased according to increasing concentration of Lycii fructus' powder. In the sensory evaluation, scores for color, flavor, pleasant taste, hardness and adhesiveness increased with increasing powder concentration; however oily taste was decreased. The 3% Lycii fructus powder sample had the highest acceptance scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability. The results suggest that Lycii fructus powder can be applied to fish paste for both quality and functionality.

The objective of this study was to reduce the waste rate of onion peel, which has excellent functionalities, and to promote its industrial utilization. The methodology involved preparing beef jerkies using liquid seasonings with 0% (OPE0), 50% (OPE50) and 100% (OPE100) onion peel extract (OPE) of domestically produced onion, respectively; and assessing their antioxidant activities and quality characteristics. As the amount of added OPE increased, the contents of crude protein and crude ash increased, while those of crude fat decreased. As for color values, increase in the amount of added OPE led to increase in L value and b value, but decrease in a value. The measurement of mechanical texture showed that hardness and cohesiveness decreased as the amount of added OPE increased. TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) content decreased as the amount of added OPE increased. And the amount of added OPE increased, all the antioxidant activity of beef jerky increased. Acceptability test showed the highest preference for OPE50 with regard to flavor, taste texture and overall acceptability. Quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) showed that increase in the amount of added OPE led to increase in meat color, salty taste, sweet taste, meat flavor and chewiness and decrease in off-flavor. According to principal component analysis (PCA), OPE50 and OPE100 had high levels of the sensory attributes that increase preference-such as meat color, salty taste, sweet taste, meat flavor and chewiness. Based on such results, it was established that 50% is the optimal mixing ratio of OPE for preparing a beef jerky of high preference that also has excellent quality characteristics and antioxidant activity.

Objectives: This study examined the association of the sleep quality and patterns with the dietary behavior, including snack and beverage consumption, taste preferences, as well as lifestyle of university students. Methods: The subjects were 406 university students in Cheongju, Korea, and the data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. They were divided into two groups according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI): good-quality sleepers (PSQI score ≤ 5) and poor-quality sleepers (PSQI score > 5). The data were analyzed using a χ²-test, independent t-test, and analysis of covariance using the SPSS 25.0 program. Results: Fifty-two percent of university students were categorized as poor-quality sleepers by the PSQI. Students classified as poor-quality sleepers had delayed bedtimes, and a shorter duration in bed and total sleep hours than the good-quality sleepers did. Poor-quality sleepers were more prevalent among those who were female, having irregular mealtimes, or frequent late night meals. They also consumed fast food frequently, such as fried chicken and hamburgers, and noodles when adjusted for gender. In addition, drinks with caffeine over milk were dominant among poor-quality sleepers. Furthermore, the preferences for spicy and salty tastes and longer smartphone usage were more prevalent in those with poor-sleep quality. Conclusions: These results showed that more than 50% of university students reported disturbed sleep and poor quality sleep was associated with less desirable snack consumption and taste preference, more smartphone usage, and others. Therefore, nutrition education program along with lifestyle changes promoting sufficient sleep are encouraged to provide for university students, particularly those who have poor sleep quality.

In order to stabilize the price of fresh ginseng by extension of seasonal variation and marketing structure, and to reduce the cost of production by works of intensive and short term, studies were carried out. As fresh ginseng of 4 years old by the MA and CA was stored for 12 week at 4$^{\circ}C$, samples were collected after every 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 weeks for processing red ginseng. Color and Sensual characteristics on ginseng steamed red for the quality evaluation are summarized as follows. For the time course of storage with red ginseng, which was processed from fresh one after various treatments, L and b values were decreased, however a value was increased. In particular, absorbance was step-wisely increased. Turbidity was somewhat increased, and non-treatment of preservative were shown 2 times higher of absorbance. Extraction ratio of ethanol-soluble extractives slightly increased by the preservation methods, and as storage period was passed. CA storage and preservative treat merit versus MA and non-preservative treatment gave much stability in ginseng quality. In the sensual characters, sour taste and sweet taste were increased, but fresh taste and rice scorched taste were decreased. Bitter taste was not much changed until end of storage. CA was shown smaller differences than MA in the pH change. Addition of preservative extended the storage time.

This study was performed to determine the optimal composition of a muffin administered dried burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experiment was designed base on CCD (Central Composite Design), and evaluation was carried out by means of RSM (Response Surface Methodology), which included 10 experimental points with 3 replicates for the two independent variables burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experimental muffin was made according to a traditional recipe, except that the flour was partially replaced with dried burdock powder (5%, 15%, 25%) and the sugar was partially replaced with oligosaccharide (25%, 50%, 75%). The compositional and functional properties of the prepared products were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. Using the F-test, volume, height, pH, yellowness, chewiness, resilience, springiness, cohesiveness, taste, and overall quality were expressed as a linear model, whereas lightness, redness, adhesiveness, color, flavor, and overall quality were expressed as a quadratic model. The polynomial models developed by RSM for sensory evaluation, color, flavor, texture, taste, and overall quality were highly effective in describing the relationships between the factors (p<0.01). The estimated response surfaces confirmed that the amount of burdock powder had significant effects on color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality (p<0.01), whereas and the amount of oligosaccharide had significant effects on color and texture (p<0.01). Increased amount of burdock powder led to reductions of the sensory scores for color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality at all oligosaccharide levels. The optimal mixing percentage of burdock powder and oligosaccharide muffin were determined to be 5.00% and 46.25%, respectively.
