摘要:
The present invention relates to tasty, ready-to-eat, nutritional foods that offer an alternative to appealing but unhealthy foods. More particularly, tasty, ready-to-eat, nutritional foods that provide a balanced mix of amino acids, fat, and carbohydrates are disclosed. Processes for making, and methods of using said tasty, ready-to-eat, nutritional foods are also disclosed. The nutritious foods of the present invention are formulated and processed such that they resolve the dilemma that consumers have always been faced with - healthy eating or enjoying what they eat.

A microwave susceptor which includes a dielectric substrate and a dry layer of microwave active coating material overlaying at least a portion of the substrate is provided. The coating material includes a silicate binder and an active constituent and the weight ratio of the silicate to active is about 98:2 or less (i.e. less silicate). The dry layer is electrically continuous and has a surface concentration of active constituent of about 1 gram per square meter or greater. Sodium silicate is preferred as the binder and graphite is preferred as the active constituent. In addition additives such as saccharides, glycerine and plasticizers can be added to inhibit thermal shut down and to increase the flexibility of the dry layer. The susceptor can exhibit moderate heat performance or even high heating performance if desired. A susceptor baking cup, a baking system including a dome shaped cover which can be used to form an enclosure, and a container for frying are all possible uses for this microwave active coating material.

A structural fat particularly suitable for making margarine oils and margarines and other emulsified spreads, especially stick-type products is disclosed. This fat has a unique trtglycer- ide composition. The important positional isomers are the SSS, SOS, SSO AND SOO/SLS triglycerides, wherein S - saturated fatty acid residue, O = oleic acid residue, and L - linoleic acid residue. The weight ratios of palmitic to stearic acid and oleic to linoleic acid residues attached to the glycerides are important. The fat can be obtained from a solventless two-step thermal fractionation of palm oil. The margarine oil products comprise the structural fat in combination with a soft oil. The emulsified spreads are formed by mixing the margarine oil product with an aqueous phase. The emulsion is chilled to defined temperatures with defined residence time for crystallization. This provides spreads having sufficient viscosity to form stick-type products with conventional margarine equipment.

Psyllium-containing baked cookie compositions having high fiber content and good eating qualities. These baked cookies essentially comprise psyllium fiber, insoluble dietary fiber, shortening, flour, sugar and water within certain limits. Eating quality of these psyllium-containing cookies is especially enhanced by their reduced tendency for the composition to stick to and/or form a film on teeth during ingestion.

The invention relates to cookies made with a fiber-containing filling. This filling has a very low water activity (0.2-0.35) so that the crispness of the cookies' outer dough is preserved. At the same time, the filling tastes soft and lubricious instead of tough and fibrous. In particular, the invention is a dual textured cookie made from: (a) discrete regions of a cookie dough which before baking contains: 10% to 30% shortening, 20% to 45% flour, 20% to 45% readily crystallizable sugar, and 5% to 15% water; and (b) discrete regions of a filling which before baking contains: 0% to 25% sorbitol, 10% to 45% fructose, 0% to 30% dextrose, 16% to 32% glycerine, 2% to 35% cellulosic fiber, and 3% to 10% fruit puree.
