The evaluation of human brain processing of food and taste has been conducted for decades. The large number of articles published has advanced our understanding towards the neurobiology behind gustatory perception.

Results reveal that seminal works were written by multiple authors and focused on animal studies, psychophysical studies and development of questionnaire tools.
