Taste sensitivities mediate differential snack choices across BMI groups: a study with New Zealand young male individuals

This study aimed to: 1) test for the link between snack choices and BMI using a novel sensory‐based classification method; and 2) elucidate the role of gustatory sensitivity in orienting snack choices.
