Abstract
⺠Edible taste strips were used to examine fatty acid taste responses in humans. ⺠Taste intensity values for stearic acid were in the barely detectable range. ⺠Taste intensity values for linoleic acid were in the weak to moderate range. ⺠Taste intensity values for linoleic acid decreased nearly 40% when nasal airflow was blocked. ⺠PROP tasters reported higher intensity values for linoleic acid than did non-tasters of PROP.
