| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted a sensory evaluation test for medical professionals. They were required to categorize commercial pasty foods on the basis of certain criteria, in order to investigate whether their textures are homogeneous or heterogenous.
We found that pasty foods containing meat turn homogeneous when put through a sieve whose mesh size is 600 μm, and this mesh size is smaller than that used to make homogeneous pasty foods containing no meat. And MCT oil is useful to make smooth pasty food, it content is about 10% to material
