Entry: Physical-state

Notation:
A0B8Z

This facet describes the form (physical aspect) of the food as reported by the consumer (as estimated during interview or as registered in the diary) (Consumption Data) or as expressed in the analysis results in the laboratory (Occurrence Data). Only one descriptor in this facet should be chosen per food, apart from the specification “with solid particles”.This facet should only be used to allow distinguishing between variants with different rheology inside the same food group. It does not replace the use of the facet process to report treatments. For example, process pulping/mashing should never be replaced by only reporting Physical state= puree type.
