“…Largely, this sensory information is transmitted centrally along separate pathways, but the integration of these three intraoral senses into a unitary object generates the perception of flavor (Small, 2012 ). As a consequence, the intraoral sensations associated with eating are inherently related (Schul et al, 1996 ; Sakai and Yamamoto, 2001 ; Sakai and Imada, 2003 ; Torregrossa et al, 2012 ; Blankenship et al, 2019 ; Fredericksen et al, 2019 ; Elliott and Maier, 2020 ; Maier and Elliott, 2020 ; McQueen et al, 2020 ). Our current understanding of the behavioral and neural relationships between the intraoral senses is due in large part to many notable human studies (Arabie and Moskowitz, 1971 ; Moskowitz, 1973 ; Bartoshuk et al, 1982 ; Frank et al, 1993 ; Stevenson et al, 1995 ; Dalton et al, 2000 ; Hollowood et al, 2002 ; De Araujo et al, 2003 ; de Araujo et al, 2013 ; Prescott et al, 2004 ; Small et al, 2004 , 2008 ; Veldhuizen et al, 2010 ; Lim and Johnson, 2011 ; Veldhuizen and Small, 2011 ; Green et al, 2012 ).…”
