For the outcomes of snack weight and energy, there was a significant main effect of snack type (energy consumed was greater for the less-aerated snack; p = 0.0003) and subject sex (energy consumed was greater for men; p = 0.034). The effect of serving method and the interactions of these factors were not significant.

For the outcome of snack volume, there was a significant main effect of snack type (volume consumed was greater for the more-aerated snack; p <0.0001) and subject sex (volume consumed was greater for men; p = 0.019). The effect of serving method and the interactions of these factors were not significant.
