Many intrinsic and extrinsic factors lead people to choose or prefer a type of food instead of another. Among them, sensory sensitivity plays a pivotal role. However, substantial individual variations in chemosensory perceptions exist. It is widely demonstrated that individual sensitivity to taste and odour sensations significantly changes food preference, choice, and consumption, whereas texture and trigeminal sensitivities, and how they could affect food rejection or preferences and choice, are poorly investigated.<\/p>\n

This Special Issue of Foods<\/em> aims to collect both original research papers and reviews to expand knowledge in the field of individual sensitivity to texture and trigeminal sensations, bringing together insights from interdisciplinary fields. Researchers in physiology, psychology, sensory evaluation, behavioral, and consumer science are kindly invited to submit their works. Articles dealing with methodological issues are highly desirable and very welcome, as well as articles focused on the several relationships existing among the individual variables determining food preferences, food choices or people\u2019s eating habits. <\/em><\/p>\n

A special issue of Foods<\/i><\/a> (ISSN 2304-8158). This special issue belongs to the section “Sensory and Consumer Sciences<\/a>“.<\/p>\n
