Preliminary and Final Evaluations using the Sensory Evaluation Sheet

The sensory evaluation sheet is what the Johnson Food Lab uses to evaluate any food that will be eaten by the astronauts.  The sensory evaluation sheet evaluates areas like taste, texture, aroma, appearance.  The appearance that is evaluated is NOT of the plated food, but rather their samples that the judges taste( and only from the exact recipe).  Also, all number values given should be whole numbers ONLY.  And the overall column is NOT an average of all of the other columns.  It is the number value that a judge may decide the entire product is valued at.
