New processed food products from the conch were developed including dehydrated edible meat pieces (DM), instant dehydrated soup product (IS), and frozen hot smoked edible meat pieces (HM). Fresh conch brought from the Red Sea Coast, Egypt. All products had good sources of protein (up to 45% on a dry weight basis). All had high nutritional values, 373.9, 472.5, and 379.5 Kcal/100g for DM, IS, and HM products. The overall acceptability of the products was ranged from extremely like to very good even after storage. Total bacterial count, psychrophilic bacteria, and fungi counts were all at a safe level.
