Preferred term

fat taste  

Definition

  • Traditionally, fat in foods was thought to be perceived through textural cues, such as creaminess and oiliness. The thought that fat might have a detectable taste was only recognized in the past few years, first in animal studies, and then more recently in humans. [Source: Encyclopedia of Obesity; Fat Taste]
