“…Color as an intrinsic quality attribute influences consumers' expectations of meat quality at the moment of purchase (Carpenter, Cornforth, & Whittier, 2001;Font-i-Furnols & Guerrero, 2014;Gracia & de Magistris, 2013;Verbeke et al, 2005;West, Larue, Touil, & Scott, 2001), probably because consumers normally use color to indicate wholesomeness or contamination of meat products (Mancini, 2009;Owusu-Sekyere et al, 2014).
