Abstract

At the Institute of Food Research in Reading a new Department of Food Acceptability was formed in April 1989. This includes sections investigating sensory responses to foods, food appearance and flavour chemistry. There is also a section devoted to investigating the reasons for people's choice of foods, that is, the psychology of food choice.
