Consumer Attitudes towards Food Preservation Methods

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

I would recommend to add more sources from WoS and Scopus Databases, add the limits and barriers of the research, provide deeper discussion and once more check the formal side of the paper.

Source of each Table and Figure needs to be added.

Reviewer 2 Report

The purpose of the article was to assess the perception of 7 different methods of food processing and to identify influencing factors such as education as well as living space and at the same time to consider whether consumers check this type of information on labels.
The authors approach the theoretical part in a complete way and present a clear image on the approached subject.
The only significant observation on the text would be related to the size of the sample, namely I would recommend the inclusion of arguments for which the number of 438 respondents was considered representative (relative to what / what is the titular population / statistical population, probability of guaranteeing results, etc.) .
Regarding the appearance of the article and the arrangement on the page, I would suggest the correction from the bibliography (which is numbered twice). In addition, from line 207 to the end, the font is different from the rest of the text (I suggest reformatting).
