Choice of cutlery can change perception of food taste
OXFORD, England, June 26 () -- Our perception of how food tastes can be affected by the size, shape,[url=http://www.parajumpersjackenoutlet.de/]parajumpers jacken outlet[/url], weight and color of the cutlery used to serve and consume it, a British study indicates.More than 100 students taking part in an Oxford University experiment on the influence of cutlery on taste said cheese tasted saltier when eaten from a knife rather than a fork, white spoons made yogurt taste better, while almost all food tasted sweeter on smaller spoons traditionally used to serve desserts.The finding suggests the brain makes judgments about food even before it goes into the mouth, the researchers said."How we experience food is a multisensory experience involving taste,[url=http://www.christianlouboutinonlineshop.de/]christian louboutin online shop[/url], feel of the food in our mouths, aroma and the feasting of our eyes," researchers Charles Spence and Vanessa Harrar said in a report on their research in the journal Flavor."Even before we put food into our mouths our brains have made a judgment about it, which affects our overall experience."Food perceptions could help dieters or improve dining experiences at restaurants, Spence said."There's a lot more to food than what's on the plate," he told the BBC. "Many things we thought didn't matter do. We're going to see a lot more of neuroscience design around mealtimes."
