The sound like taste sensation

The sound like taste sensation
  • The sound produced by food is also important for the perception of taste 

Adding to the sense of taste and smell, the sound produced by food is also important for the perception of taste, this is because it contributes to the perceived texture of the food, as for example the study on the crispy bacon of the University of Leeds (BBC News, 2007). Unlike taste and smell, this seems to be one of the characteristics that less attention is paid at mealtime, for the study 80 people who were not professional tasters were asked to evaluate the importance of the senses when trying different foods or drinks. By manipulating the sound that food produces through headphones, it was possible to demonstrate that the perception of its freshness and taste is altered (Gastronomía y Cía, 2015; Spence, 2015).
