Development of a questionnaire to measure attraction toward sweet, salty, and fatty foods in children
2014
Childhood obesity may be responsible for a major alteration of life quality in children and in future adults. The causes of obesity are multiple and obesity results from a chronic imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure. The challenge is to understand the cause of this imbalance. In this context, this study aimed at evaluating the contribution of the attraction toward salty, sweet and fatty foods. Thus, the first aim of this study was to establish a tool to assess children’s attraction toward sweet, salty and fatty foods that could be used later in large-scale cohorts. The second objective was to compare this questionnaire to sensory tests measuring the overall liking for sweet…
Impact of sweetness on children's eating behaviour: the roles of taste and calories
2014
International audience; The sweet taste is innately liked as shown in newborns. This attraction, confirmed in older children1, is interpreted in relation to the advantage conferred by the consumption of the energy of sugars. However, the impact of the taste and of the calories from sugar needs further clarification. Two studies will be presented, aimed at understanding the role of taste and calories from sugar in children from different age groups. The first study looked at flavor-flavor learning by pairing the taste of a vegetable with the sweet taste in 6-month-old infants. It shows that adding sweet taste is associated to a higher consumption of the vegetable in the sweet version but not…

Use of added sugar, salt and fat in the first year in France and associated factors in the ELFE cohort study
2018
National audience; Background and Aims: To describe added sugar, salt and fat uses and their determinants during complementary feeding (CF) period in infants aged 3 to 10 months. Methods: Data are drawn from the ELFE study (Etude longitudinale Française depuis l'Enfance) which included >18000 infants in 2011. A frequency food questionnaire of consumption of added sugar, salt and fat was monthly completed by the mother from the 3rd to the 10th month (N=10,649). The associations between the use of each added-ingredient and (1) socio-economic characteristics and (2) infant care and feeding practices were studied with two models (the second including the factors of the first) with multivariate …
Salt, sugar and lipid reduction in solid foods; a summary of the main outcomes from PLEASURE and TERIFIQ FP7 Twin projects
2018
National audience; Most developed countries are facing excessive consumption of salt, saturated fat and free sugars. The reduction of salt-sugar-saturated fats (SSSF) in foods influences not only its nutritional qualities but also its sensory properties and safety (e.g.shelf-life). The main challenge is to formulate healthier foods, which will be accepted by consumers. In this context, two FP7 European projects, TeRiFiQ and PLeASURe have been funded on the same call (2012-2015) to investigate innovative strategies for the reduction of sodium, sugar and fat content in selected foods. Both projects focused on staple foods such as cheese, meat, bakery (cake), sauces and also pizza as an assemb…

Is the improvement of the nutritional quality compatible with the maintenance of the sensory quality? : the example of biscuits
2013
French biscuit producers are willing to improve the nutritional composition of their products. The. objective of this work was to determine whether it was possible while maintaining the sensory. quality of the reduced product. The first study dealt with the impact of fat and sugar reduction on liking and sensory perception of. 9 types of biscuits and cakes. Results show that children perceived almost no difference and liked. equally the standard and the fat- and/or sugar-reduced variants for most types of biscuits. For. products reduced without adding polyols, adults less like fat- or sugar-reduced variants than. standard ones mainly when they were perceived as less sweet, and to a lesser e…
