Which Statement Would be Correct? [I Love Proper Grammar]

1. I love to eat beans (cooked not raw of course).

2. I love to eat beans (cooked not raw of course.)

Would the period go in or out of the parenthesis?

Because it is only part of the sentence in parenthesis, you place the final period outside. If the entire sentence was in parenthesis, you place on the inside.
