An in-store experiment was performed to investigate the effects of shelf placement (high, middle, low) on consumers' purchases of potato chips. Placement of potato chips on the middle shelf was associated with the highest percentage of purchases. The results confirm the importance of item placement as a factor in consumers' buying behavior.

the demand for low fat snacks is increasing. there are different methods to produce low fat fried products. one of these methods is coating. in this study effect of carrageenan, oil temperature and frying time, on oil uptake of fried products (chips and strips) has been evaluated. samples were deep fried in frying oil (palm olein) at 160, 175 and 190 ºc. in order to evaluate the effect of fryin...

High oleic soybean (HOSBO) and low linolenic acid soybean (LLSBO) oils were evaluated individually and in a 1:1 blend along with cottonseed oil (CSO) to determine frying oil stabilities and the flavor quality and stability of potato chips. Potato chips were fried in the oils for a total of 25 h. Potato chips and oils were sampled periodically for sensory data, gas chromatographic volatile compo...

background & aim: chemicals antioxidants and lipid oxidation products are known as cancer-causing factors in food systems. in this study, the effect of essential oil from heracleum lasiopetalum fruits on lipid oxidation and physicochemical properties of potato chips in comparison with commercial antioxidant has been investigated.experimental: the essential oil of h. lasiopetalum extracted u...

In this research the automatic classification of commercial potato chips by computer vision was studied. The general objective was to design a tool that would be able to classify objectively potato chips according to their color in different categories. For this purpose, sensory measurements of color in 100 potato chips were correlated with the corresponding objective measurements obtained by c...

We assess consumer demand for traditional fresh potatoes and processed potato products and willingness to pay for new experimental low-acrylamide and sulfite-free potato products. Demand for fresh potatoes, potato chips, and fries is unaffected by household income or education, but demand for chips and fries is affected by consumer age and exercise habits. Subjects display increased willingness...
