ABSTRACT
Studies were made to determine the acceptability of whole milk enriched with 1% solids-not-fat as compared to market milk. The control product formulations tested were, in percentages, 4.0 fat, 8.5 solids-not-fat, 12.5 total solids, and 3.5 fat, 8.5 solids-not-fat, and 12.0 total solids. The enriched counterparts contained an additional 1% solids-not-fat.
A total of 2,165 individual preference observations were made. Of these, 1,151 participants preferred the enriched product, 847 the control, and 167 indicated no preference. Based on a Chi-square analysis, these results indicated a highly significant preference at the P < 0.01 level for the enriched products.
The microbiological keeping quality of both products, control and enriched, was satisfactory.
