Abstract
While there is some research demonstrating flavor-nutrient hedonic learning (FNL-H) in humans, the overall picture is contradictory and incomplete. One possible explanation is the failure to use novel flavors in human experiments; most humans have previously learned associations between many flavors and the nutritive content and/or post-ingestive effects. This experiment used novel floral flavors, with familiar flavor control groups, with the prediction that participants in high-fat diet conditions would show significantly more liking for their assigned flavor compared to participants in the low-fat conditions. The results did not support the hypothesis; there was no significant difference between liking across diet conditions.
