One purpose of this study was to establish a hurdle for the sensory
quality levels during distribution. When the preference at the
end of the shelf life was approximately 33% compared with 67%
preference at the beginning of the product’s shelf life, the sensory
quality level was significantly lower at the end of the product’s
shelf life than that at the beginning. This percentage was calculated
from the significance table for paired preference tests presented in
Stone and Sidel (1993)
