Texture has long been considered an important attribute for food acceptance. However, which specific textural characteristics contribute to overall acceptance of a food is not well understood. It has been suggested that texture contrasts and combinations are a universal feature in giving foods a desirable texture, yet this notion is largely based upon anecdotal data. This study uses multiple survey research methods to assess the importance of texture contrast and combinations across cultures (Poland, U.S.A., and Singapore). Participants (n = 288) completed a survey that included overt measures of food texture contrast importance as well as free response questions regarding texture. The overall importance of texture for food liking was not different across the populations. However, the participants from Singapore and Poland gave more importance to a desirable food having multiple textures than the U.S.A. cohort. When looking at free responses, participants were twice as likely to mention combinations (multiple textures) with a texture contrast when describing foods they liked, in comparison to foods they disliked. This was observed across all 3 cultures. However, the type and quantity of texture terms used within combinations were different among cultures. For instance, Singaporeans enjoyed more texturally diverse food combinations than the other two cultures. These findings highlight the importance of texture contrasts and combinations in three distinct cultures. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

质地对比和组合对跨文化食物接受度的贡献

质地长期以来一直被认为是食品接受度的一个重要属性。然而,哪些特定的质地特征有助于食物的整体接受度尚不清楚。有人提出,质地对比和组合是赋予食物理想质地的普遍特征,但这一概念主要基于轶事数据。本研究使用多种调查研究方法来评估跨文化(波兰、美国和新加坡)的纹理对比和组合的重要性。参与者 (n = 288) 完成了一项调查,其中包括食品质地对比重要性的公开测量以及有关质地的自由回答问题。质地对食物喜好的总体重要性在不同人群中没有差异。然而,新加坡和波兰的参与者比美国的参与者更重视具有多种质地的理想食物。在查看自由回答时,参与者在描述他们喜欢的食物时提到具有质地对比的组合(多种质地)的可能性是他们不喜欢的食物的两倍。这在所有 3 种培养物中均观察到。然而,组合中使用的纹理术语的类型和数量因文化而异。例如,与其他两种文化相比,新加坡人享受更多质地多样化的食物组合。这些发现突出了三种不同文化中质地对比和组合的重要性。本文受版权保护。版权所有。与他们不喜欢的食物相比,参与者在描述他们喜欢的食物时提到具有质地对比的组合(多种质地)的可能性是其两倍。这在所有 3 种培养物中均观察到。然而,组合中使用的纹理术语的类型和数量因文化而异。例如,与其他两种文化相比,新加坡人享受更多质地多样化的食物组合。这些发现突出了三种不同文化中质地对比和组合的重要性。本文受版权保护。版权所有。与他们不喜欢的食物相比,参与者在描述他们喜欢的食物时提到具有质地对比的组合(多种质地)的可能性是其两倍。这在所有 3 种培养物中均观察到。然而,组合中使用的纹理术语的类型和数量因文化而异。例如,与其他两种文化相比,新加坡人享受更多质地多样化的食物组合。这些发现突出了三种不同文化中质地对比和组合的重要性。本文受版权保护。版权所有。组合中使用的纹理术语的类型和数量因文化而异。例如,与其他两种文化相比,新加坡人享受更多质地多样化的食物组合。这些发现突出了三种不同文化中质地对比和组合的重要性。本文受版权保护。版权所有。组合中使用的纹理术语的类型和数量因文化而异。例如,与其他两种文化相比,新加坡人享受更多质地多样化的食物组合。这些发现突出了三种不同文化中质地对比和组合的重要性。本文受版权保护。版权所有。
