Valid sensory and consumer testing usually requires some thought and planning about context. Place, time, ambience, meal setting, social situation, personal mood, etc. can all be important. This discussion group will explore how and why context is important and in which ways methods are being developed and adapted to refer to or recreate real-life contexts.
This discussion group will be followed by the IFST Sensory Science Group committee meeting which will be open to IFST members.
