Juiciness is traditionally linked to the ability of a fruit to release liquid when it is chewed, with respect to how quickly it yields to pressure, the amount of juice that flows, and how much it stimulates saliva production. This term is also used to characterize prepared meat that retains a great amount of its juice and liquid fats.
