The researchers from Wageningen UR Food & Biobased Research in the Netherlands, the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Austria and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, looked at three groups of at least 24 study participants’ emotional responses when they ate yogurt.
Yogurts with different fruits in them generally didn’t affect the participants’ moods, the study found. The team of scientists said their most surprising conclusion was that vanilla yogurt drew very strong positive responses from the participants.
