Summary

Ice cream was stored under fluorescent lights and examined by sensory analyses for development of off flavours. Type of packaging material and lid design were also evaluated. The experiment showed that prolonged exposure to fluorescent light can decrease the intensity of vanilla and produce oxidized flavour in ice cream. Ice cream under "windows" was most susceptible to the effects of fluorescent light. Paperboard blocked out more of the harmful light than did plain white plastic.
