Organoleptic aspects are subjective and therefore susceptible to change depending on the tastes of the consumers (and on thegeographical areas of the world) and also on how the flowers are cooked and seasoned. Nevertheless, there is no doubt that A. hous-torianum, B. semperflorens, V. vittrockiana and T. majus are veryattractive, and satisfy at the same time health requirements due totheir high antioxidant levels. The flowers of T. majushave alreadybeen investigated for the postharvest physiology (Friedman et al.,2005) and for the thermal requirements for their storage (Kelleyet al., 2003).
