Abstract: Cleaning articles including a heat engine incorporated therein. The cleaning article may include a substrate (e.g., a non-woven wipe) including one or more layers. The heat engine may be in the wipe or pad, and includes a reactive metal composition which upon contact with a salt water (e.g., saline) composition, reacts to produce heat. The cleaning article may thus produce water vapor and/or steam upon activation of the heat engine. A venting structure may be provided adjacent to or surrounding the heat engine that includes an impermeable material (e.g., impermeable to water and/or air or other gas), which includes one or more vents through the impermeable material. The venting structure directs water vapor and/or steam to a desired face of the cleaning article, away from the user. A heat barrier layer may insulate a user's hand from the generated heat, and/or a handle may be attachable to the pad.

Abstract: Packaged emulsified food compositions (e.g., salad dressings including an oil/water emulsion) including a probiotic, which may be included therein, without requiring heating during packaging, and without requiring refrigeration for long term shelf stability. The probiotic may be sporeforming. In an embodiment the probiotic comprises spores which do not germinate until ingested by a consumer (e.g., such that the spores germinate in the intestinal tract of the consumer). The probiotic may comprise Bacillus coagulans spores, which may be added to the emulsion following addition of an acid. The salad dressing or other food composition advantageously can be cold packed, requiring no heating during manufacture, and no refrigeration after packaging, all while providing stability of 1 year or more.
