ABSTRACTThe relationships between CIE (1976) L*a*b* color parameters from a Hunter LabScan II Sphere Spectrocolorimeter and two Minolta Chroma Meters were evaluated. Jams, yoghurts with jam, salami‐type dry sausages, raw cauliflowers, mashed and raw potatoes and various color standards were used as samples. The numerical values of the color parameters depended upon the instrument used. The relationships between the color parameters could be described by linear regressions which were specific for each type of food except for mashed potatoes and cauliflower. Best predictions of color parameters from one instrument to another were obtained with the most homogenious types of foo
