This study was conducted to assess the information of food safety by college students according to mass-media reports. To accomplish this, a survey was conducted to investigate the preference and reliability, of primary mass-media sources of BSE information, and BSE-related knowledge of college students. The most common sources of media by male and female students were terrestrial television(60%), the internet(21%) and newspapers(11%) and terrestrial television(60%), newspapers (18%) and the internet(17%), respectively. The reliability of media of male students were terrestrial television(53%) and the internet(40%), while for female students these values were terrestrial television(55%) and internet(37%), respectively. In the case of male students, the primary sources of information regarding BSE were terrestrial television(54%) and the internet(38%), but for female students the primary sources were terrestrial television(57%) and the internet(37%). Both male and female students were found to have less knowledge regarding prions, SRM, and MM type genes associated with BSE when compared to the other factors associated with this disease. In addition, the important determining factors for the food purchase of male and female students both were the orders of taste, hygiene, price. The preferences for meats and the beef-alternative meats of male and female students were the orders of pork, chicken. Based on these results, greater efforts should be made to provide meaningful information regarding the safe production and distribution of meats.

In this study the perception and consumption of processed meat products by students in food service schools was investigated. The total number of subjects in Seoul and Gangwon province used for this survey was 569. The most preferred processed meat product for students was the fried pork cutlet(17.7%), followed by bacon(11.4%), ham(7.9%) and sausage(7.6%). The main reasons for the consumption of these processed meat products were 'good taste'(52.5%), 'convenience in eating'(18.8%) and 'as the parent buy'(18.8%). The preference for the processed meat products had a relatively high perception value(4.0). However, the effect of consuming processed meat products on nutrition and health had a relatively low perception value(2.9). Reasons for distrusting the processed meat products were attributed to 'bad influence by media'(25.9%) and the 'unsanitary manufacture'(23.6%). In regards to the question about sodium nitrite, most of the students(56.2%) replied that they had 'never heard of it' or 'didn't know it well'. In conclusion, an improvement in public information would be a prerequisite for expanding wholesome use of processed meat products.

Guk has been a very important part of the Korean table service for a long time. To study the historical transition of traditional Guk, an analysis of old cookbooks from the Chosun dynasty ($15{\sim}19C$) was conducted based on cooking science. The following is the results of 52 types of Malgunguk from representative old cookbooks such as Sangayorok (1450), Suunjabbang (early 1500s), Eumshikdimibang (1670), Jeungbosallimgyungje (1766), Gyuhabchongsu (1815), Juchan (mid 1800s), Sieuijunsu(late 1800s). The ingredients for Malgunguk contain 30, 35, and 12 types of animal foods, plant foods, and seasonings, respectively. Fish and two to three meats are combined for the main ingredients of Guk, to harmonize the taste. Notably, deer and birds such as pheasants along with parts of beef (short ribs, marrow, Holdaegi) were used. Moreover, it is interesting to note that meat such as pork and chicken were favored to beef, which is contrary to preferences of today. There are only a few Malgunguks that have been passed down before the 16th century those after the 17th century have mostly been reported, but the ingredients have been simplified.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of red wine on the color, hardness, springiness, chewiness, pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value, and total bacterial number of pork meat stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Pork meat was treated with 25% water (control), 20% water and 5% red wine (RW5), 15% water and 10% red wine (RW10), or 10% water and 15% red wine (RW15). The lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) values tended to decrease with longer storage period (p<0.05). The $L^*$ values of RW10 and RW15 were higher than those of control and RW5 on the first day of storage, whereas the control and RW5 had higher $L^*$ values compared to RW10 and RW15 after 10 days (p<0.05). Hardness of RW5 was the lowest after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). The pH levels were not significantly different among the samples. The VBN contents increased with longer storage period (p<0.05), and those of RW10 and RW15 were lower than those of the control and RW5 after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). The TBARS values increased with longer storage period (p<0.05), and those of the control, RW5, RW10, and RW15 were 0.61, 0.45, 0.35 and 0.33 mg MA/kg, respectively, after 10 days of the storage. The total bacterial numbers increased with longer storage period, and those of RW5, RW10 and RW15 were lower compared to the control (p<0.05). Taste, tenderness, juiciness, and palatability were not significantly different among the samples, but the flavor of RW5 had the highest value after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). These results suggest that red wine can inhibit protein degradation, lipid oxidation, and bacterial growth when used as an additive of seasoned pork meat.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of addition of lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) leaf and root extracts on the quality and sensory characteristics of ground pork meat. Four types of ground pork were evaluated: 5% ice water added (T0), 5% lotus leaf extract added (T1), 2.5% lotus leaf extract and 2.5% root extract added (T2), and 5% lotus root extract added (T3). There were no significant differences in moisture, protein, fat, ash, cooking yield, moisture retention, water holding capacity, reduction in diameter, a-value (redness), b-value (yellowness), VBN content (volatile basic nitrogen), hardness, springiness, cohesiveness or chewiness. The fat retention was highest in T0 (p<0.05). The L-values (lightness) of T2 and T3 were higher than those of T0 and T1 (p<0.05). The pH was lowest in T1 (p<0.05). The TBARS (2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) values of T0, T1, T2, and T3 were 0.47, 0.17, 0.21, and 0.32 mgMA/kg, respectively, with that of T1 being significantly lower than those of the other samples (p<0.05). The contents of free amino acids related to sweet taste was 642.5 ppm for T1, which was highest among the samples (p<0.05). The flavor was highest in T1 (p<0.05). These results suggest that lotus leaf extracts improved the lipid oxidation and flavor of ground pork meat.
