Panelists found significant differences for all sensory attributes
except fibrousness
Despite this fact, they related fibrousness
with chewiness
hardness (r = 0.57) and mealiness(r =−0.61)
Possibly higher fiber content of a food product requires

found a significant linear
correlation (r = 0.74, p < 0.01) between chewiness and fibrousness
