Effect of Barium Sulfate Contrast Medium on Rheology and Sensory Texture Attributes in a Model Food
- 2009
-
Ingår i: Acta Radiologica. - : SAGE Publications. - 0284-1851 .- 1600-0455. ; 50:2, s. 131-138
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: The swallowing process can be visualized using videoradiography, by mixing food with contrast medium, e.g., barium sulfate (BaSO4), making it radiopaque. The sensory properties of foods may be affected by adding this medium. Purpose: To evaluate if and to what extent sensory and rheological characteristics of mango puree were altered by adding barium sulfate to the food. Material and Methods: This study evaluated four food samples based on mango puree, with no or added barium sulfate contrast medium (0%, 12.5%, 25.0%, and 37.5%), by a radiographic method, and measured sensory texture properties and rheological characteristics. The sensory evaluation was performed by an external trained panel using quantitative descriptive analysis. The ease of swallowing the foods was also evaluated. Results: The sensory texture properties of mango puree were significantly affected by the added barium in all evaluated attributes, as was the perception of particles. Moreover, ease of swallowing was significantly higher in the sample without added contrast medium. All samples decreased in extensional viscosity with increasing extension rate, i.e., all samples were tension thinning. Shear viscosity was not as dependent on the concentration of BaSO4 as extensional viscosity. Conclusion: Addition of barium sulfate to a model food of mango puree has a major impact on perceived sensory texture attributes as well as on rheological parameters.

Health and sustainability in public meals : an explorative review
- 2020
-
Ingår i: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. - 1661-7827 .- 1660-4601. ; 17:2

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The world is facing a number of challenges related to food consumption. These are, on the one hand, health effects and, on the other hand, the environmental impact of food production. Radical changes are needed to achieve a sustainable and healthy food production and consumption. Public and institutional meals play a vital role in promoting health and sustainability, since they are responsible for a significant part of food consumption, as well as their “normative influence” on peoples’ food habits. The aim of this paper is to provide an explorative review of the scientific literature, focusing on European research including both concepts of health and sustainability in studies of public meals. Of >3000 papers, 20 were found to satisfy these criteria and were thus included in the review. The results showed that schools and hospitals are the most dominant arenas where both health and sustainability have been addressed. Three different approaches in combining health and sustainability have been found, these are: “Health as embracing sustainability”, “Sustainability as embracing health” and “Health and sustainability as separate concepts”. However, a clear motivation for addressing both health and sustainability is most often missing

THEME ELDERLY- Attractive food for elderly : the role of inspiring and informative packaging
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Background: Malnutrition is common among elderly due to low appetite. Appetite is highly connected to age, health and social activities. For home-living elderly, readymade meals are often served for both lunch and dinner. When appetite is reduced, apart from the food itself, the packaging should stimulate appetite by enhancing the attractiveness of the packaged food. The food itself has to fulfil the sensory expectations.Aim: To identify important packaging attributes that will increase attractiveness of readymade meals for elderly.Method: Iterative design in which consumer tests, focus group discussions and deep interviews for evaluation of prototypes were held with elderly (65-88 years) focussing on food and food packaging. Sensory factors were of specific interest.Results: The packaging and the meal inside must attract all senses in order to stimulate appetite, mainly visual and tactile senses were of importance. Although many claim they would like to be able to see the food, photographs of the packed meal are preferred over transparency. The photographs have to be truthful. Easy to read is the most important factor, information should be clearly visible (contrast and size) and not be too verbose. Furthermore, easy to open and handle and consequently, size and weight of the packaging, are also important factors.Discussion: The stepwise iterative design of the study included several user tests with different generations of developed prototypes as well as benchmarking against commercial products were useful in identifications of important packaging attributes. A high level of consumer interaction was reached and it became clear that the packaging had a profound impact on the appetite of readymade meals.Conclusion: Visual factors are of highest importance as well as tactile properties. Pictures clearly showing the meal in a true and attractive way as well as clearly visible and informative information, size and weight were deemed important.

Circular gastronomy : exploring a new compound concept at the interface between food, meals and sustainability
- 2022
-
Ingår i: International Journal of Gastronomy and Food Science. - : Elsevier BV. - 1878-450X .- 1878-4518. ; 30, s. 1-8

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Environmental, as well as economic and social/cultural aspects of sustainability, are important when striving for sustainable production and consumption of food and meals. However, a terminology including specific concepts within the combined area of food, meals and sustainability is lacking. In order to investigate how food, meals and sustainability can be conceptualized together, the aim of this paper is to explore the compound concept of circular gastronomy to discover how it can be understood and applied, and its potential opportunities and challenges. A further aim is to provide a definition of circular gastronomy. The data collection was conducted in two phases of an explorative sequential mixed-method study comprising qualitative focus groups followed by a web-based survey. The results revealed the complexity in the compound concept of circular gastronomy, both in what might be included and in how it could be understood and applied. Circular gastronomy was considered to be useful, interesting and trendy; however, understanding circularity and gastronomy as a compound concept was also found to be challenging. As a result of the study, and previous understandings of circular and gastronomy, a definition of circular gastronomy is provided. Developing the understanding of circular gastronomy is an attempt to contribute to the conceptual development of the combined area of food, meals and sustainability.

Exploring the meal concept : an interdisciplinary literature overview
- 2015
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The meal concept is used in varying contexts, and within several scientific fields, however often without a clear definition of what it includes. The meal has been identified as a subject in multiple research areas such as nutrition, medicine, sensory science, history, design product development, food service, biology, physiology, anthropology, sociology, psychology, marketing and so forth 1. A meal may be defined and identified by the time of the day, by its energy content and how the food is combined as well as by its social interactions, implying that it may be understood in relation to the food itself as well as to the social and cultural context 2. The meal has also been discussed in relation to the concept of “snacks”, where a meal has been defined as a “structured food event”, while “snacks” represent “unstructured food events”3 . Some attempts have been made in order to define the meal and also to present a more holistic model of what it includes. One way of defining the meal is by using certain cues related to food as well as the environment 4. Another example is the Five Aspects Meal Model (FAMM) which was developed as a model in the early 2000s 5, with the ambition to capture an entirety of the meal by including the room, the meeting, the product, the logistics and the atmosphere in defining and understanding a meal. Although there have been many attempts trying to find a general and precise definition, the complexity makes it difficult, and maybe impossible, to capture the meal concept in a single definition 6. Different disciplines focus on various aspects, which may complicate a common understanding 7,8,9.It has been stated that meals are only one form of eating 10, and that the meal alone does not capture the diversity of todays’ eating. Still, it is recurrently used as a point of reference and as a norm for discussions concerning food and eating. The meal concept is however in constant change and must be understood in relation to societal patterns and norms, how we organize our eating and what role food plays as a social and cultural glue 2, but also in relation to our perception of health, sustainability, convenience and so forth. Other concepts, such as “eating episodes” 11,12, “eating occasions” see f ex. 13 and “eating events” 14 have also been used as attempts to illuminate the complexity of food habits. Nonetheless, the meal is still universally used and recurrent in various research works, and therefore it is of importance to investigate how the concept is actually used and understood in the different areas related to food- and meal science, an interdisciplinary field studying food and meals within Food science, Nutrition and health, and Food culture and communication.

- The world is facing a number of challenges related to food consumption. Food conduces to far-reaching health effects as well as environmental impact. System changes are needed tomeet a sustainable, healthy food production and consumption. Public and institutional mealsplay a vital role in promoting health and sustainability. In many countries public meals, in this study defined as meals taking place in institutional settings, constitutes a substantial part offood consumption, and may exert a a normative influence on peoples’ food habits. The aimof this study was to exploratively review how, and if, health and sustainability are addressedin the European scientific literature dealing with public meals. Of >3000 papers, 20 werefound to satisfy the criteria and included in the review. The results showed that schools andhospitals are the most dominant arenas where both health and sustainability have beenaddressed. Three different approaches in combining health and sustainability. In the first“Health as embracing sustainability” health is the point of departure and sustainability isincluded as part of health. This is emphasized in relation to health promotion initiatives andhow these could also be more sustainable, claiming that health should embrace both aspects.In the second, “Sustainability as embracing health” sustainability is in focus and health is seenas part of sustainability. This was for example illustrated when focusing on sustainable foodprocurement which is then also motivated by better nutrition in terms of knowing where thefood comes from and how it is produced. Last, for “Health and sustainability as separateconcepts” the link between heath and sustainability was unspecified or undefined. This couldbe exemplified by the stated, but not inter linked or combined, role of the school meal totackle societal challenges related to health and sustainability. In general, a clear motivationfor addressing both health and sustainability is most often missing. This indicates a need formore research within all public meal arenas regarding issues of health and sustainability, forexample in order to provide a more comprehensive foundation for decision-making.

Texture-modified meat and carrot products for elderly people with dysphagia : preference in relation to health and oral status
- 2007
-
Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Food and Nutrition. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1748-2976 .- 1748-2984. ; 51:4, s. 141-147
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Reduced taste and smell, chewing problems and swallowing dysfunction are common among elderly people and affect perception, food choice and the ability to eat. Objective: To study the preference for texture-modified carrot and meat products in elderly people aiming to meet the needs of people with impaired chewing and/or swallowing. Design: Data were collected using questionnaires focusing on health, oral status and preference for the products. Altogether, 108 elderly people in ordinary housing (OH) and 50 living in special housing (SH) in Malmö (SH-M) and Göteborg (SH-G) participated. Results: 19% had a body mass index 522, predominantly in SH (24%). Stroke was reported by 20% of the subjects in SH. Among those with subjectively experienced difficulties in swallowing (12%), 58% reported coughing, 21% a gurgly voice in association with food intake and 50% obstruction during swallowing. Only 20% with subjective swallowing difficulties had been specifically examined regarding this problem. All the tested products were easy to masticate and swallow. Compared with OH, people in SH-M found the meatproducts easier to masticate and swallow. Compared with OH, subjects in SH found the carrot products easier to masticate. Conclusions: There is a need to develop tasty texture-modified nutritious food products for people with mastication and/or swallowing problems. Possible factors for differences in preference between groups, in this study OH and SH, may be related to health status in general and specifically mastication and swallowing functions.

Ingår i: Proceedings 27th European Grassland Federation General Meeting. ; , s. 780-782
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the four most typical producdon systems for Swedish lamb on sensory atrributes of meat, including appearance, texture, taste and flavour using an analytical panel. The experiment included four production treatments for weaned intact male lambs: (1) indoor fed with grass and clover silage ad libitum and 0.8 kg concentrate daily per lamb; (2) grazing on cultivated pasture with; or (3) without 0.3 kg concentrate supplementation daily per lamb; and (4) grazing on semi natura! pasture; eight lambs per producdon treatment were used. Feed radons, pasture height and live weight of the lambs were recorded. At slaughter, live weight, carcass conformation, fatness, pH and temperature decline in musde during 24 hoursafi:er slaughter were registered. Sensory and technological meat quality parameters were tested in cooked samples of M longissimus dorsi. Meat colour was not affected by treatment. Most sensor attributes were unaffected by producdon system hut for 'hay odour' and 'resistance to cutting; differences between the systems were manifested.

- The sensory quality of seaweed, whether as a whole biomass or as a protein ingredient, plays a crucial role in its successful commercialization. This study explored the effect of different Ulva species, biomass washing, and pH shift-based protein extraction on the sensory quality of emulsions with 0, 5, and 10 % oil. A trained panel assessed the sensory profile, complemented by analyses of volatile compounds, total ash, and amino acids. Saltiness emerged as the primary distinction between emulsions with unwashed U. linza and U. fenestrata, due to higher ash in the former. Washing U. fenestrata retained sensory qualities despite reduced ash and increased content of the lipid oxidation-marker pentanal. Protein extraction up-concentrated total amino acids 2.9-fold, and yielded emulsions with reduced particle sensation and grassy flavor, while bitterness, sourness, dark color, pentanal, hexanal, and 2-ethylfuran increased. Increased oil content of emulsions lowered their grassy odor which correlated with reduced hexanal content. Overall, these findings can contribute to the development of food products containing seaweed or protein ingredients thereof that match consumer preferences.

- Interest in heritage cereals is increasing among consumers, bakeries and farmers, and thetrends point towards the local production of crops and connect to sustainability. The most knownvariety is spelt, which has opened up for old landraces such as Oland wheat. Heritage cereals haveshown a higher resilience than modern varieties and have the potential to supply the market withalternative products that have an attractive cultural background. Delicious and nutritious productsbased on heritages cereals have a growing market potential. Consumers’ attitudes and preferences todierent products are aected by factors such as age, gender and education. The aim of this studywas to investigate and analyse dierent consumer groups’ awareness, attitudes and preferencestoward heritage cereals. The number of respondents who participated in this study and answered theweb-based questionnaire was 434. It can be concluded that most consumers are aware of heritagecereals. Geographic background had an influence, while academic background did not. Bread andpasta are the most consumed products and are regarded as the most popular future products tobe based on heritage cereals. The most essential factors in bread are taste and flavour, followedby freshness and texture. The origin of the cereal and its health aspects are important; women aremore concerned about the origin than men, while older consumers are more concerned about health.Older consumers are also more willing to pay extra for heritage cereal than younger consumers.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- IntroductionConsumer trends are pointing towards local and regional food production, e.g. heritage cereals not least because of a rising interest for sustainability. It is well known that the sensory experience of a product is of greatest importance for the consumers, but also claims such as ancient, organic, or local may have a positive impact. AimTo investigate consumers’ awareness, attitudes and preferences towards heritage cereals. Further to study differences and similarities between different groups of consumers.MethodsSwedish consumers, aged 18 years or older were invited to answer a web based questionnaire concerning awareness, knowledge and attitudes towards heritage cereals. Participation was anonymous and voluntarily. ResultsThe total number of participants was 434.Spelt was the significantly most known variety among all participants. Knowledge about other varieties differed with participants’ geographic location. Bread followed by pasta were the most consumed cereal products, more than 99% of the participants consumed bread. The consumption of pasta was high among all groups except for the older consumers who consumed significantly less.Taste, flavour and freshness were the most important quality aspects of bread. It was found that texture, wholemeal flour as well as the origin of the cereal, were more important to women than to men.Bread and pasta are the most preferred future products based on heritage cereals and most consumers, except for the younger, are willing to pay a higher price.DiscussionIn line with other studies it was shown that sensory properties such as taste and texture are the most important factors for the consumers, nevertheless more important for women than for men. The willingness of paying a higher price for products based on heritage cereals indicated awareness about the importance of sustainable food production. Still, well known product categories are the most preferred future products among all consumers.

Food and Meal Science – a part of academic life : The Research Group MEAL – Food and Meal for Everyday Life, Food and Meal Science, Kristianstad University, Sweden
- 2015
-
Konferensbidrag (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Food and Meal Science is an interdisciplinary research and education field at Kristianstad University with a vision to create a sustainable and healthy society. Here gastronomists (BSc in Food and Meal Science) and teachers in home and consumer studies (MSc in Subject Education) are educated. The field include the areas “Nutrition and Health”, “Food Science” and “Food Culture and Communication”. The BSC-programme comprise science, craftsmanship and creativity. Theory is turned into practice through laborative exercises and working life placements. In 2014, the programme was evaluated to be of “Very high quality” by the Swedish educational authority. Approximately 25 gastronomists graduate yearly and find work opportunities within industry, eg innovations and product development and within the public meal sector.Currently, efforts are made to develop a Masters degree programme for students interested in higher education. The research group MEAL was founded 2013. One of the aims is to reach a holistic understanding of food and meals. Research projects include sensory, consumer and nutritional aspects in relation to age, culture and health. Food habits and behavior are of interest as well as sociological aspects. Further key concepts, such as “cooking” and “meal“, are explored from different angles of the field. The research is a key factor in the academisation of the field and will lay a stable ground for education at MSc-level. Food and meal science has a great opportunity to combine and use aspects from the different areas in order to form a holistic understanding within research and education.

Heritage cereals : historical ingredients in future foods
- 2021
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The project “Sustainable organic bread from heritage cereals: using history to form the future”, financed by Formas - the Swedish research council for sustainable development (project no 2018–02393), is examining potential and management of heritage cereals in comparison to modern cereals. One of the project’s aim is to investigate links between consumer preferences and nutritional quality of heritage cereals. Aiming for solid ground of the project two initial studies were performed; one literature review and one consumer study (Zamaratskaia et al., 2020, Wendin et al., 2020). The narrative literature review included 135 references and the consumer study included 434 respondents.Cereal-based food products is a large part of the daily diet and throughout history cereals have been an important source of nutrition (Valamoti et al., 2019). The literature review could point out that many varieties of heritage cereal varieties have beneficial nutritional profiles. Further, that consumers have a high acceptance of tastes and flavours of food products based on these cereals. Moreover, heritage cereals have the potential to contribute to improved sustainability and resilience of cropping systems, and indirectly, production and consumption of foods based on heritage cereals have a positive impact on biodiversity. In line with the literature review, the consumer study showed positive attitudes towards heritage cereals, and high awareness. Results showed that bread and pasta are the most popular future products based on heritage cereals. The most essential factors for the consumers are taste and flavour, followed by freshness and texture. Health aspects as well as origin of the cereal are also of importance. Most consumers were willing to pay a higher price for heritage cereal products. Based upon the results from the review and the consumer study, heritage cereals have the potential to supply the market with alternative products with an attractive cultural background. Due to the unique nutritional value and phytochemical profile as well as appreciated sensory characteristics, there is a potential for heritage cereals to become a part of a healthy diet. Delicious and nutritious products based on heritages cereals have a growing market potential.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The effects of fat content and thickeners, propylene glycol alginate (PGA; 1.40%) and guar gum (1.55%), on sensory and instrumental quality descriptors on reduced fat mayonnaises (15 and 30% fat) with and without added aroma compounds, citral (semi-polar) and pyroligneous acid (polar), were investigated. One mayonnaise, 82% fat, without added thickener or aroma compounds was used as reference. Sensory evaluation (quantitative descriptive analysis; QDA), rheological analysis (yield stress, maximum viscosity, G' and G''), measurements of particle size and headspace CC-MS analyses were carried out. Correlations between the results were developed Perceived and instrumental texture, and perceived smell and flavour, changed differently in magnitude and direction due to fat content and type of thickener.

Swidden rye : an ancient crop and a future food candidate
- 2022
-
Konferensbidrag (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Today consumer trends are moving towards local and regional production of crops, especially those with a history, i.e., ancient crops. The aim of this study was to investigate sensory aspects, analytical and hedonic, of swidden rye grown at different Swedish locations. The study included both swidden rye as flour and products based on swidden rye. Results showed a variation between the flours, mainly in texture and appearance attributes. Addition of fat and sugar increased the differences between the samples and significant differences were observed also in the taste and flavour attributes. TThe results form a ground for healthy and tasty future innovations.

-
Ingår i: Trends in Food Science & Technology. - 0924-2244 .- 1879-3053. ; 107, s. 114-123
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: There is currently renewed interest in foods based on ancient cereals because consumers oftenconsider such foods to be healthy and sustainable. Interest in ancient cereals is also growing among farmers andin the food industry due to increased demands for adaptability and the urgent need to preserve genetic diversity.Scope and approach: In this review, we attempt to summarise recent findings regarding the content of nutrientsand bioactive compounds in ancient cereals and their potential impact on human health in comparison withmodern varieties. A literature review was conducted by collecting, evaluating and analysing data from publicationsin peer-reviewed scientific journals written in English language. Key findings and conclusions: As indicated in several studies, ancient cereal varieties might have beneficialnutritional profile and consumers appreciate the taste and flavour of foods based on ancient cereals. These cerealshave the potential to contribute to the improved sustainability and resilience of cropping systems. Inaddition, the production and consumption of foods based on ancient cereals indirectly encourages biodiversity,which has become a priority in environmental and organic farming circles. In conclusion, due to their uniquenutritional value and phytochemical profile as well as their sensory characteristics, there is good potential forancient cereals and associated products to become a part of a healthy diet.
