In this study, the process of making and consumption habits of consumers have been studied in order to continue the production of cellen, which is a gastronomic heritage and to emphasize its importance. In the research, the semi-configured conversation technique from the qualitative research methods as the data collection method was used and was carried out in two stages. First, it was discussed with the producers who prepared the cellen for the process of making the cellen. In the second phase, there were discussions with the consumers. As a result of the negotiations, it was determined that the sales of whales were excessive, and that it was ordered by consumers from the concerned enterprises from outside the city. It has also come to the conclusion that cellen has been consumed for many years without gender difference and is preferred mainly in the winter season.
