摘要:
A low-fat and low-calorie nut spread having at least about 50% less fat and at least about 33% fewer calories than full-fat peanut butter yet having a flavor and texture comparable to a full-fat nut butter or spread. The nut spread has a non-fat solids to oil ratio that is less than about 2.0:1, comprises nut solids that have a mono-modal particle size distribution where the D50 and D90 sizes are less than about 15 and about 30 microns, respectively. The level of fat-free nut solids is from about 34% to about 45%. The apparent viscosity of the nut spread is less than about 4500 cP. The nut spread comprises at least about 20% oil substitute, preferably a sucrose polyester that contains an anal leakage controlling agent. Also disclosed is a preferred process for making the nut spread.

A catamenial tampon comprises a compressed absorbent member having an inner region and an exterior surface, the compressed absorbent member comprising an absorbent material. An overwrap substantially covers the exterior surface of the compressed absorbent member. The overwrap comprises an apertured fluid pervious material that is hydrophobic or rendered hydrophobic relative to the compressed absorbent member. The fluid pervious overwrap therefore tends to remain free of fluid as the fluid is preferentially partitioned into the absorbent member.
摘要:
This invention relates to processes for the production of purified, partially esterified polyol fatty acid polyesters and the compositions derived from those processes. The purified, partially esterified polyol fatty acid polyesters of the present invention are particularly well suited for use in a variety of food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications and comprise less than about 5% polyol; less than about 5 ppm of residual solvent; less than about 700 ppm of lower alky esters; less than about 5% of a soap and free fatty acid mixture; less than about 3% of ash; and have an acid value of less than about 6.

A method and device for brewing beverages is disclosed. The design incorporates a heater incorporating an advantageous combination of heating reservoir size and heating element power. The design also incorporates a purging process to dry a coffee pod after use.
摘要:
Processes for the preparation of polyol fatty acid polyesters comprise heating a mixture of polyol, fatty acid ester, emulsifying agent and catalyst. In one embodiment, the fatty acid chains of the fatty acid ester have from about 6 to about 14 total carbon atoms and the emulsifying agent comprises a fatty acid soap having fatty acid chains of from about 16 to about 22 total carbon atoms.

摘要:
Creamy, reduced fat, low-moisture lipid-based fillings. The fillings comprise: (a) at least about 20% non-digestible lipid; and (b) from about 0.5% to about 35% crystallizing lipid. The fillings can additionally comprise other suitable optional ingredients. The filling has a water activity of less than about 0.6 and has at least about 20% less digestible fat than a comparable full-fat lipid-based filling. In one embodiment, a cheese filling comprises: (a) from about 20% to about 60% non-digestible lipid; (b) from about 0.5% to about 35% crystallizing lipid; (c) from about 20% to about 75% dehydrated cheese powder; and (d) from about 0% to about 55% bulking agent. The fillings can be used with any suitable substrate, but are especially suitable for use in random packed food products, especially sandwich biscuits. Sandwich biscuits made with the fillings adhere well to the biscuits so that the sandwich biscuits are not misaligned, smeared, or subject to splitting or decapping in production or after storage.
摘要:
A process for removing digestible fat from a crude reaction mixture comprising nondigestible fat and at least one digestible fat selected from the group consisting of digestible fats having fatty acid chains, comprising the steps of: (1) treating the crude reaction mixture with an aqueous solution comprising lipase at a pH sufficient to obtain soaps from the fatty acid chains; and (2) removing the soaps.
