Previous research has focused mainly on the type of information
that could be derived from the sound (either recorded or in
real-time) during biting and crushing of foods. However, Zampini
and Spence (2004) adopted a multisensory approach for studying
the role auditory cues play in food perception. These researchers
investigated the possible auditory modulation of tactile, mechanical,
and kinaesthetic information on food perception and evaluation
by simply changing the sound the person could hear when
biting into commercial potato chips (Zampini & Spence, 2004).
