Means within the same row not sharing common superscript letters are significantly different ().
LFC: low-fat Cheddar, HCC: high-calcium Cheddar, CA: Cheddar 1, CB: Cheddar 2, EA: Emmental 1, G: Gouda, EB: Emmental 2, RFC: reduced-fat Cheddar.
The values of adhesiveness are expressed as mean ± standard deviation of the mean ().
