ABSTRACT The addition of GPR120 agonists to vegetable oil or a fat‐containing food system enhances the fatty orosensation, an oily mouth‐coating sensed 5–10 s after tasting, in humans, although they have no fatty orosensation by themselves. To elucidate the role of GPR120 in the fatty orosensation in humans, the effects of GPR120 agonists and an ...
