Instead of throwing the peelings away, many families can earn something from it by using our experiment. They can produce a product and maybe start a business or they can produce it for their own use. We, the researchers, wanted to prove that nothing in this world is useless and peelings count as useful materials too, and can somehow help people to use their creative minds to make things possible out of such wastes.

Our country is experiencing economic crisis and many Filipinos do not have stable jobs. Our problem in waste management also has a huge impact on why the researchers chose this study to begin with. The wastes in market says it all. The following problems that this study wants to answer are the following: * Does the peeling of pineapple (Ananas comosus) can be made as vinegar? * Can this study help to reduce the waste in the environment? * Is pineapple vinegar more affordable than a commercially sold vinegar? * Is pineapple vinegar has more taste than a commercially sold vinegar? C. HYPOTHESIS
In this study, we, the researchers, has two hypothesis which are stated bellow: * Is pineapple (ananas comosus) can be an alternative source in making vinegar? * Is pineapple (ananas comosus) cannot be an alternative source in making vinegar? D. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE
