Higher Masticatory Performance and Higher Number of Chewing Strokes Increase Retronasal Aroma [PDF]
Mastication is a physiological process whereby food is comminuted and mixed with saliva to form a swallowable bolus; it is also the initial process for retronasal aroma that is released from foods to receptors in the nose.
