Abstract: This study was undertaken to determine the acceptability of selected convenience chicken products to older individuals, and to compare the acceptability scores obtained from older individuals with scores from persons representing the general public. Three convenience chicken products provided by one processor were subjectively evaluated by two taste panels of older adults and a consumer panel. The products were frozen precooked chicken apple fritters, chicken breast fillets, and chicken patties. The Senior Scholars Taste Panel was chosen to represent a middle income group maintaining private homes. The Hall Towers Taste Panel was chosen to represent a low income group living in public housing. The Consumer Panel was composed of persons who selected the convenience chicken products when served in the cafeteria of the School of Home Economics of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
