摘要
Retail cuts from 654 Rambouillet, Targee, Columbia and cross‐bred lamb carcasses were marketed in Utah and California. A questionnaire was distributed at the point of sale asking the consumer to describe the acceptability of the particular cut that was purchased. Sensory scores for tenderness, flavor, juiciness and overall acceptability were determined by the consumer using a hedonic scale. A consumer response was collected for each of 426 carcasses. Weight, sex and breed had no significant affect on consumer acceptance. Discrimination against lamb carcasses on the basis of weight, or sex, at best, reflects the personal preferences of buyers, packers, feeders and retailers or may reflect the lack of uniformity in trimming retail cuts.
