“…One critical step in developing low salt products is to measure the sensory discrimination and preference change of a developed product compared to the reference sample. Sensory discrimination tests based on a fixed reference are suitable for comparing sensory properties of different samples with a fixed reference product 10 , 11 . In recent years, the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to evaluate activated brain areas during sensory experiences has become increasingly popular in the field of flavor chemistry.…”

Neuroimaging studies that focus on taste, odor, and their interactions can specify their capability to elicit brain regions responsible for flavor perception and reward. Such information would be useful for formulating healthy food products, such as low salt food. In this study, a sensory experiment was conducted to investigate the capability of cheddar cheese odor, monosodium glutamate (MSG), and their interactions to enhance saltiness perception and preference of NaCl solutions. The activated brain areas in response to odor-taste-taste interactions were then investigated using an fMRI study. The results of the sensory tests showed that saltiness and preference of NaCl solutions were enhanced in the presence of MSG + cheddar cheese odor. According to the fMRI study, the stimulus with a higher salty rate activated the rolandic operculum, and the stimulus with a higher preference activated the rectus, medial orbitofrontal cortex, and substantia nigra. Moreover, the activation of multiple regions, such as the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), temporal pole, and amygdala was observed in response to (cheddar cheese odor + MSG + NaCl) minus (odorless air + NaCl).
