Abstract

This exercise introduces the student to the use of reference standards for descriptive analysis by using the ingredients in a blended vegetable juice product. It provides an experience in flavor profiling, using a consensus procedure similar to the original method. It also provides an opportunity to discuss the advantages of using a statistical method or data analysis versus a consensus procedure. Students will gain experience working in a small group that must cooperate.
