In this research, the cilok that produce by additiof of seaweed we call “ciweed”. The results of the proximate analysis on ciweed showed that moisture, ash, fat, proteinand carbohydrate content respectively by 55.76%; 2.3%; 0.24%; 3.33% and 38.37%. In 100 gof Ciweedcontain energy as much as 306.7 kcal. Based on the economic analysis, ciweed manufacture is highly prospective for further development into a business because the B/C ratio is 1, 56.
