The effect of cultivars on sensory parameters and acceptance of minimally processed pomegranate arils during cold storage are shown in Fig 4 (15th day). Sensory score of 5 and above out of 9 is the limit of acceptance in terms of product attributes such as aril colour, texture, sweetness and juiciness. The sensory score study performed on 15th day of storage shown that score given in respect to color, texture, sweetness, juiciness and overall acceptance was much higher in minimally processed arils obtained from Mridula cultivar compared to Kandhari and Bhagwa
