a, b Means with different superscripts in each column indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) by the Tukey's Studentized Range test. A, B Means with different superscripts in each row indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) by t-test. N/A refers to Non-Applicable since there was no packaging involved in the blind condition, and the liking scores were for the taste.
