The effect of substituting Morton Lite Salt or Mineral Salt for sodium chloride in neutral emulsion and in mayonnaise was evaluated by using 1.00% sodium chloride, 1.25% Morton Lite Salt and 1.40% Mineral Salt of the emulsion weight. None, 1.00%, 2.00% and 3.00% of lactose were used to mask the bitter taste associated with potassium chloride. A triangle test using twelve to fifteen panelists was used. Results indicated that both Morton Lite Salt and Mineral Salt had a significant different taste (P ≤ 0.01) as compared with sodium chloride when they were used with none and 1.00% of lactose. Samples which had 2.00% or 3.00% lactose showed no significant taste difference between Morton Lite Salt or Mineral Salt and sodium chloride. It was concluded that a bitter masking agent such as lactose is needed when Morton Lite Salt or Mineral Salt is used to substitute sodium chloride in mayonnaise.
