Message 3: How We Test Our Bars. Based on the research you did and your initial work in RecipeTest, the internship coordinator confidently reported to me that your skill in developing FuturaBar recipes for patients and rescue workers shows promise. This is great news! Today, you will Learn how we use RecipeTest to find out if a recipe actually meets the complex metabolic needs of our two target populations. In order to learn more, we test our recipes by madeling several tast users from each population. Each test user represents a possible person, with his or her Unique needs. You'll learn more about them when you read “Designing a FuturaBar” in the Futura Food Engineer's Dossier. | suggest you organize this information so the test users’ specific needs are handy as you test and revise recipes. Track your recipes, results, and revisions using the RecipeTest Data sheets. These sheets will help you organize everything so you can come back and analyze your work. Today you will have a practice run with RecipeTest. Stay focused! Amina ‘Amina Reid, Project Director Futura | Food Engineering Division
