What are the difference between subjective and objective food test?
in science, subjective tests often deal with perceptions, while objective tests deal with empirical evidence (something that can actually be measured and have a percentage or other precise measurement assigned). So for food, examples might be (these are very basic, just for example sake): Subjective: Have subjects try two or more different brands of chocolate chip cookies and rate them on which seems to have the most intense chocolate flavor. (so it would be determined that this one tastes like it has more chocolate than that one) Objective: Run a chemical analysis on the chocolate chip cookies to see which has the highest concentration of cocoa.
