The study revealed that Brits favourite noise in the kitchen is the sound of ice cubes being dropped into a glass of drink.

Hot food sizzling in a pan came in second and butter being spread on toast came in third.

Gill Riley, spokesperson for the nation’s best-selling meat alternative brand, said: “Our kitchen is the heartbeat of most homes, all year round it is filled with sounds and smells that we love, and even more so around Valentine’s Day.

“This definitive list of top sounds is satisfying in itself, showing how many noises we hear and create in the kitchen which make us feel content.

“The crunch, pop or crisp of foods helps inspire what people reach for as a snack or cook up for a family meal.”

Almost a third (33 per cent) revealed they feel hungry after hearing particular ‘food sounds,’ while 47 per cent claim they could recognise culinary noises with their eyes closed.

And nearly half of the group surveyed believed that certain foods taste better because of the sound they make while being cooked.

A quarter of those polled via OnePoll watch ASMR food related content on social media, with 44 per cent of them claiming it’s satisfying and 41 per cent finding it relaxing.
