A food item is disclosed produced in the preferred form by an apparatus (10) including first and second forming rollers (18, 21) which rotatably abut with an anvil roller (20). The forming rollers (18, 21) each include a periphery forming a continuous forming surface including a plurality of axially and circumferentially spaced grooves (24) each formed as a continuous depression arranged in a serpentine and non-intersecting manner. Food (14) is simultaneously fed by a saddle (36, 36') between a continuous strip of support material (16) and a continuous ribbon of film material (66) as they pass between a first abutment nip of the first forming roller (18) and the anvil roller (20). In a preferred form, the saddle (36') is in the form of a block having first and second lower surfaces (118, 120) corresponding to the shape and located adjacent the first forming roller (18) and the anvil roller (20) in their mating side (32). A trough (24) is formed in the second lower surface (120) which is supplied by food under pressure flowing through conduits (140, 142, 144, 146, 150, 152). Radially disposed barriers (132) divide the trough (24) into axial portions. Radially disposed dividing walls (136) having lower tapering surfaces (138) and an axially disposed dividing wall (148) having a radially spaced lower end divide the trough (24) into volumes for receiving different foods (14a, 14b) to produce food items including integral food zones where the different foods (14a, 14b) are not intermixed.
