Effects of various sub-ingredients (hot pepper, garlic, ginger, green onion, leek, salted and fermented anchovy juice, and sugar) on the sensory quality of Korean cabbage kimchi were investigated. Sixteen sensory attributes were selected and their intensities evaluated by 20 panelists. The kimchi had an unbarmonized taste and unpleasant flavor when fermented with individual sub-ingredients, but had a well harmonized taste when fermented with all sub-ingredients. Hot pepper, ginger and garlic contributed to reduction of the unpleasatnt taste and moldy odor. The strong garlic flavor was reduced by adding green onion and leek. Salted and fermented anchovy juice gave a palatable taste, and the overall taste was improved by adding sugar. All sub-ingredients except sugar reduced the sour tasts.

This study was conducted to analyze sensory characteristics and consumer acceptance with cookies made using various levels(0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% w/w) of Chrysanthemum indicum L. powder. Ten panels assessed sensory characteristics using a 15-point hedonic scale and forty-five consumers evaluated their acceptance based on a 7-point hedonic scale and best-worst scaling. The descriptive analyses reveled that cookie flavor did not differ significantly between the 2% added sample and the control. Cookie color and after taste increased significantly, while hardness, roasted taste, and sweetness taste decreased significantly according to increasing Chrysanthemum indicum L. powder concentration. In addition, the results of consumer acceptance showed that the overall acceptability, appearance, color, flavor, and taste decreased significantly in response to increasing Chrysanthemum indicum L. powder concentration. However, color, flavor, taste and overall acceptance with cookies did not differ significantly differ between the 2% and 4% sample. Additionally, among the cookies made with Chrysanthemum indicum L. powder, the 2% sample received the highest scores. In conclusion, the sensory optimal ratio of Chrysanthemum indicum L. powder was 2% based on the descriptive analysis of sensory characteristics and the consumer-acceptance testing.

As a part of basic investigation for utilization of canned food processing by-products, a food components of the canned oyster processing waste water such as boiled and released water(BRW), wash water(WW) were investigated and compared with hot-water extracts from oyster. From the results of measuring heavy metal conte수, viable cells and coliform group, the canned oyster processing waste waters might not invoke health risk in using food resource. The contents of taste compounds (free amino acids, ATP related compounds, TMA (O) and total creatinine) of BRW and WW accounted for about 254% and 95%, respectively, in comparison with those of control (hot-water extract from oyster). The BRW showed a very high content of salt in comparing to the WW and control. In descending order, the values of whiteness index was WW, control and BRW. Sensory scores for color, oyster flavor intensity and saline taste were not significantly different between WW and control. But, BRW had the highest score in oyster flavor intensity, while had the lowest score in color and saline taste. But, the color and saline taste of BRW might be able to control by some pretreatment (concentration and drying in mild condition, desalination and recipe control etc). These results indicated that BRW and WW generated from various step during canned oyster processing could be a potential food resource by controlling of saline taste and color intensity.

Background: In their first days of life, dairy calves in artificial rearing systems often have difficulty using an artificial teat for feeding. Methods: We examined the age at which calves are able to stand up voluntarily and suckle as well as their suckling behavior when presented with a plain dry teat versus a dry teat modified with a presumably attractive odor or taste substance. Single-housed newborn dairy calves (n = 51) were presented for ten consecutive days with a two-minute two-choice test, in which suckling time was recorded for 1) a plain (control) teat versus a glucose-coated teat (taste test) and 2) a plain teat versus a teat with a "Freshly Cut Grass" odor (odor test). Results: On average, the calves were able to stand up voluntarily and suckle from the second or third day of age on. The "Freshly Cut Grass" odor had no significant effect on their suckling behavior. In contrast, the calves showed a significant preference for suckling the glucose-coated teat and displayed a significantly longer total suckling time in the taste test compared to the odor test. There were no significant differences between sexes regarding suckling behavior. Conclusion: The results of the present study show that glucose had a significant effect on the calves' teat preference and significantly increased total suckling time with a dry artificial teat. As such, glucose may increase suckling motivation in non-efficient drinkers or ill calves with low motivation to suckle.

We developed a musical composition and performing method for the dynamic expression of food taste, to replace the static expression obtained from a numerical sensory score and linguistic method. The musical score was composed using cognitive food sensory data gathered while eating potato chips via a computer equipped with a sound card and a master keyboard, as well as Cakewalk 9.0, Goldwave 5.0, and Windows Media Player. The music score included four lines, one representing sensory data and three reflecting three layers of human consciousness. Different time units were applied by incorporating different repetition cycles for the relevant consciousness layers. The musical scores of individual subjects differed in terms of the score pattern and its sound. The music representing food taste was played by four instruments and showed different sound and acoustic frequency patterns for each individual subject during the consumption of potato chips. The musical expression method was applied to analyze the individual taste characteristics in the cognition of food.

This study was performed to provide fundamental data on the convenience foods purchase according to the food-related lifestyle. This study was conducted on 398 Chinese international students residing in Gyeonggi area between October and December 2019. Among the total 373 survey subjects, gender was 183 male students (49.1%) and 190 female students (50.9%). This study was conducted by questionnaire method with reference to previous studies. There are significant differences in economic pursuit and taste pursuit for delivery food use, economic pursuit and taste pursuit for delivery food information, health pursuit and taste pursuit in delivery food ordering method, and economic pursuit and convenience pursuit for delivery food use (p<0.05). Delivery food usage time was significantly different in convenience pursuit, health pursuit, eating out pursuit, and taste pursuit (p<0.05), and the delivery food preference menu was significantly different in economic pursuit, health pursuit, eating out pursuit, and taste pursuit (p<0.05). The menu positive factors among satisfaction factors showed statistically significant differences in economic pursuit (β=0.188, t=3.531) and health pursuit (β=0.160, t=3.099) among food related lifestyle factors. In conclusion, this study presented the desirable direction of delivery food usage in Chinese students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate eating habits and dormitory foodservices' satisfaction in university students using dormitory foodservice in the Jeollabuk-do Iksan area. Self-administered questionnaires were completed by 195 students (86 male, 109 female). Many students (58.5%) ate less than two meals per day and spent around 30 min eating meals. The results show that snack and midnight meals were the main reasons (37.9%) for unhealthy eating habits. Main source of nutritional knowledge and information were TV and the Internet (58.5%), followed by friends and people (25.1%), nutrition books (10.3%), elective courses (4.6%), and newspapers and magazines (1.5%). Men had significantly higher satisfaction scores for nutrition, taste, diversity of menu, as well as hygiene of dormitory food court compared to women (p<0.05). Salty taste was the most important factor in evaluation of taste satisfaction, whereas sour taste was opposite. The reason for taste dissatisfaction in the dormitory food court was not salty enough, and it may be related with their eating habits. The results show that students need education for adequate knowledge and information about the relationship between health and nutrition.

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 examined dietary behaviors such as use motive, selection attribute, satisfaction, and purchasing intention in Yaksun foods according to women's dietary life style type. To achieve this research objective, it targeted women in more than the 20s who dwell in Seoul and Busan area. As a result, the following facts were clarified. First, the highest recognition was shown in rationality-seeking type as for diversion and in taste-seeking type as for sociality among the motives for using Yaksun foods. Second, the highest recognition was shown in taste-seeking type as for food quality & taste and physical service and in rationality-seeking type as for convenience among the selection attributes of Yaksun foods. Third, the satisfaction and the purchasing intention of Yaksun foods were the highest in health-seeking type. Seeing the above findings, the differentiation will be pursued from other food-service markets by making sensual taste and flavor as the food materials of Yaksun foods targeting consumers who pursue taste. Also, to increase satisfaction and purchasing intention of Yaksun foods, there is a need to positively publicize that Yaksun foods have efficacy on maintaining health and preventing disease.
