A review of hundreds of experiments focused on health impacts lays the groundwork for future research in cancer prevention, weight management and other areas.
They鈥檙e a marine delicacy loved across Asia, but the humble sea cucumber is also proving to be a key ingredient in preventing diabetes, according to new research from the University of South Australia.
Citrus, caramelized sugar, vinegary, puckering, sour, and solvent. These are just a handful of the 33 terms that researchers in the Virginia Tech College of Agriculture and Life Sciences found after conducting a sensory descriptive analysis of hard cider. This lexicon didn鈥檛 previously exist for hard cider, and its development will aid producers in Virginia鈥檚 robust cider industry as well as anyone who chooses to enjoy these beverages. Producers will be able to describe their products with precision and clarity because of the study conducted in the Sensory Evaluation Lab at Virginia Tech.
Scientists focus on nutritional and sensory quality research.
Food companies, regulators, marketers, journalists and others should use the terms 鈥渃ell-based鈥� or 鈥渃ell-cultured鈥� when labeling and talking about seafood products made from the cells of fish or shellfish, according to a new Rutgers study in the Journal of Food Science.
When it comes to craft beer, the flavor doesn't have to be all in the hops.
Incorporating sweet potato puree into bread not only adds vitamin A, but also changes the starch composition by increasing the fiber content. That can be beneficial for diabetics.
Companies seeking to commercialize seafood products made from the cells of fish or shellfish should use the term 鈥渃ell-based鈥� on product labels, according to a Rutgers study 鈥� the first of its kind 鈥� in the Journal of Food Science. Both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Department of Agriculture require food products to have a 鈥渃ommon or usual name鈥� on their labels so consumers can make informed choices about what they鈥檙e purchasing.
Infusing prepared foods with an edible coating that contains green tea extract may lower consumers鈥� chances of catching the highly contagious norovirus by eating contaminated food, new research suggests.
Edible insects could be a key ingredient to avoiding a global food crisis, according to a new report, but there are significant barriers to overcome before they are part of the mainstream.
In an effort to ensure the safety of fresh fruits and vegetables for consumers, Cornell University鈥檚 Produce Safety Alliance is helping to explain complex federal food safety rules and develop new ways to assess agricultural water use.
Humans not only relish the sweet, savory and saltiness of foods, but they are influenced by the environment in which they eat. Cornell University food scientists used virtual reality to show how people鈥檚 perception of real food can be altered by their surroundings, according to research published in the Journal of Food Science.
A recent study published in the Journal of Food Science found that extracts and isolated compounds from avocado seeds can potentially be used as a natural additive incorporated into ready-to-eat foods to control microbes that cause Listeria, a foodborne bacterial illness that can be very serious for pregnant women and people with impaired immune systems.
A study published in the Journal of Food Science found that adding a small amount of Chardonnay grape seed pomace (GSP), a waste stream of wine production, to coffee may augment the antioxidant capacity of the beverage without significantly altering the appearance, taste or aroma.
A review article published in Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety summarized the functional properties of grain vinegars and fruit vinegars and compared the functional ingredients, sources, and formation mechanisms of grain and fruit vinegars.
A new scientific study shows that eating cheese may actually increase how much someone likes the wine they are drinking. The study, published in the October issue of the Journal of Food Science, used a new sensory evaluation method and found consuming cheese while drinking wine impacted the description and preference of different wines.
Garlic 鈥� consumers either love or hate the taste, but one thing is for certain, no one likes it when the scent of it sticks around on their breath. Now, garlic lovers may have a new solution to their halitosis problem. A study published in the September issue of the Journal of Food Science found that eating raw apple or lettuce may help reduce garlic breath.
A study published in the Journal of Food Science found that consuming a high protein or high fiber pasta may not result in increased satiety over regular pasta.
Coffee is enjoyed by millions of people every day and the 鈥榗offee experience鈥� has become a staple of our modern life and culture. While the current body of research related to the effects of coffee consumption on human health has been contradictory, a study in the June issue of Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, which is published by the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), found that the potential benefits of moderate coffee drinking outweigh the risks in adult consumers for the majority of major health outcomes considered.
Cooks, chefs and food manufacturers are looking for natural ways to reduce sodium in recipes in nearly every culture. A big challenge to doing that is taste. Consumers typically describe reduced-sodium foods as lacking in taste and flavor. Findings of a study in the January issue of the Journal of Food Science, published by the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), found that Vietnamese fish sauce added to chicken broth, tomato sauce and coconut curry reduced the amount of sodium chloride by by 10-25 percent while still maintaining the perceived deliciousness, saltiness and overall flavor intensity.
