DISCUSSION
The scoring tests were done to evaluate the intensity of some specified characteristics and
record the judgement on a graduated scale, then to understand the descriptive terms used in the
evaluation, lastly to familiar with the concepts of additional sensation as well as threshold tests.
Scoring is a form of rating using a numerical scale. Scoring is used for evaluating the intensity
of one or more attributes. The scoring test conducted in this laboratory dealt with crackers
samples with different levels of colour, texture, aroma, and appearance.

The color and appearance of a cracker has an important role in determining the taste of it. There
are four types of crackers that has been experimented which are Hwa Tai, Hup Seng, Jacob and
Munchy. It has different textures, flavor, and colour that can contribute to panelists attributes.

thermal, painful or kinaethetic effects. It is a widely accepted fact that food can be more less
