Level of Acceptability of Cheesy Potato Croquette Coated with Peanuts

Abstract

Potatoes are excellent sources of many vitamins and minerals such as calories, protein, potassium, vitamin C, etc. Peanuts are rich in protein, fat, and various healthy nutrients. Thus, we created a cheesy potato croquette coated with nuts to combine potato, meat, cheese, and nuts as a healthy snack. Experimental methods involved manipulating one variable to determine if changes in one variable will influence other variables. A survey questionnaire, which is a type of data gathering method that is utilized to collect, analyze, and interpret different views of a group of people, was used here. We also used simple random sampling, which is a basic sampling technique where we select a group of subjects for study from a larger group, to select the respondents. The results showed that teachers got a weighted mean of 4.0, which had the verbal interpretation strongly agree. The students obtained a weighted mean of4.1, which had the verbal interpretation strongly agree. Hence, the difference between the two groups of respondents is significant. Cheesy potato croquette is good to eat as a snack because of the benefits and our unique concept. We hope that future researchers will help improve this snack.
