The C2 sample contained moisture 4.81%, ash 1.8%, protein 2.24%, fat 5.2%, and carbohydrate 85.88%. The C3 sample contained moisture 9.3%, ash 1.5%, protein 0.67%, fat 2.7%, and carbohydrate 85.69%. The C4 sample contained moisture 9.8%, ash 1.7%, protein 0.53%, fat 4.1%, and carbohydrate 83.74%. The C5 sample contained moisture 15.04%, ash 1.7%, protein 2.6%, fat 6.6%, and carbohydrate 73.96%. A testing panel consisting 15 panelists studied the acceptability of the samples.
