Abstract
In this study, three different products, namely Muchos Nachos, Cookie Krunch, and Hawaiian
Pineapple Punch were enhanced using three different flavor enhancers wine, high fructose corn
syrup (HFCS), and citric acid respectively. The wine was used for the meat in Muchos Nachos,
while high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) for the cookies in Cookie Krunch, and lastly citric acid for
the pineapple juice in Hawaiian Pineapple Punch. The enhancers were used in three different ratios
(sample A, B and C) for each product and were given to 75 respondents for evaluation. Each
sample of the product were scored with four (4) criteria appearance, smell and texture with 20
points as total score, and taste with 25 points as total score. The evaluations of the scores given by
the respondents were statistically analyzed and using One-Way ANOVA. Although all enhanced
