In your hand, a scoop of your favorite ice cream drips delightfully, offering a temporary escape from the heat. Now, fast-forward to a chilly winter evening, nestled by the fireplace with that same ice cream. Surprisingly, it doesn&#8217;t evoke the same emotions. Why is that? The answer lies in the intricate interplay between emotions, sensory experiences, and the environmental context.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"#role\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#role\">Role of emotions in Food Choice<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"#context\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#context\">And what about the context?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"#icecare\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#icecare\">ICECARE PROJECT<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"role\">Role of Emotions in Food Choice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mood, expectations and emotions of every human being determine how they influence their individual food choice. Besides organoleptic characteristics and nutritional composition of food, food-evoked emotions play a key role in the acceptance of food products. In fact, several studies pointed out that emotions evoked by food drive the consumers\u2019 liking of food products. Also, consumers make their food choices based on their preferences, which makes it relevant to study the emotions and sensory attributes associated with food products simultaneously, as an ally in the development of new products, to achieve consumer expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>In fact, several studies pointed out that emotions evoked by food drive the consumers\u2019 liking of food products.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"context\">And what about the context?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Environmental temperature shapes the cognitive response, human behaviours, and emotional response. Furthermore, there is evidence that exposure to high temperatures negatively affects well-being causing stress, exhaustion, and aggression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13018 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/blog.sensetest.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/ice-creams-temperature.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>As an example, for an ice cream temperature can impact consumers\u2019 sensory experience beyond just taste and texture.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The sensation of coldness on the tongue, the contrast between the cold treat and the surrounding air, and the feeling of cooling relief on a hot day all contribute to the overall pleasure of eating ice cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"icecare\">ICECARE PROJECT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the ICECARE project, a study has been carried out in which the temperature in the sensory lab was manipulated, for three different conditions (16\u00b0C, 21\u00b0C and 26\u00b0C) in order to test its influence on consumers\u2019 perception.
