“…Moreover, TPA attributes were not related to oral processing parameters in studies of different breads with distinct foam‐like structures, confirming the important role of the structural features of each type of food on the chewing pattern and the intrinsic limitations of TPA in measuring mechanical properties (Gao et al., 2015, 2017; Puerta et al., 2020; Tournier et al., 2014). Recently, empirical methods, such as the Kramer shear test and the Warner‒Bratzler shear test, have been used to measure those mechanical properties of foods that can better reflect their mechanical strength regardless of their geometry (Álvarez et al., 2020; Djekic, Ilic, Guiné, et al., 2020; Djekic, Ilic, Lorenzo, et al., 2020). The maximum shear force has a better correlation with oral processing parameters than does TPA hardness (Djekic, Ilic, Lorenzo, et al., 2020).…”
