Alkyl ether amines are used as foam control compounds in foodstuff processing. The alkyl ether amines can be used at various stages during industrial processing of vegetables, fruits, and plants, such as potatoes and beets. The alkyl ether amines are generally of lower molecular weights and therefore easily transported to the foam layer to break the foam structure. Further, the alkyl ether amines are water soluble and therefore can be readily removed from the food processing system.

This invention discloses packaged nutritional supplements that have nutritional ingredients derived from green leafy vegetation that shall collectively or singly be useful to fulfill the daily need of supplementation from one or more of a nutrient from green leafy vegetation. One embodiment of this invention discloses a novel packaged composition that comprises at least one fraction of a green leafy vegetation and at least one more ingredient to improve its usability and is source of at least one nutritional ingredient selected from the group dietary fiber, beta carotene, iron, calcium, xanthophylls, folic acid and lysine plus methionine and cystine; wherein the fraction comprises a fibrous fraction, a water soluble deproteinized juice fraction and a water insoluble high protein low fiber fraction as fourth primary fraction. In one embodiment of invention, the contribution of at least one nutrient to the nutrient content of the composition from green leafy vegetation or its fraction is a least 15% of at least content of one nutrient of the composition. Also disclosed is a novel packaged composition comprising pulp of whole edible green leafy vegetation and at least one component of flax-seed in the form of a soup or a food bar. The component of flax seed may be one or more selected from the group of whole flax seed, flax seed cake or flax oil,

A low-lectin diet system comprising a terminology-marked food package configured for enabling coordinated efficiency in healthful food selection during shopping enabling a shopper to quickly identify said package as containing low lectin-antigenicity food contents, and wherein said food package is visibly marked externally with coordinated terminology validly designating food contents as of relatively low lectin-antigenicity.

A method of making a condiment is provided including slicing a pepper into pepper halves, placing the pepper halves onto a tray, dehydrating the pepper halves, placing the pepper halves within a container, and crushing the pepper halves within the container using a crushing object. The pepper is sliced lengthwise from a first end to a second end, dividing the pepper into the first half along a first sliced surface of the first half and a second sliced surface of the second half. The pepper halves are placed in the tray such that the first sliced surface and the second sliced surface are positioned upward relative to the tray. The pepper fragments are crushed such that the container includes pepper fragments smaller than 0.25 inches and pepper fragments which are larger than 0.25 inches.

Provided herein are aerogels and foams including: single structural cells and/or groups of structural cells derived from a plant or fungal tissue, the single structural cells having a decellularized 3D structure lacking cellular materials and nucleic acids of plant or fungal tissue; the single structural cells and/or groups of structural cells being distributed within a carrier derived from a dehydrated, lyophilized, or freeze-dried hydrogel. Also provided herein are methods for preparing aerogels or foams, including steps of: providing a decellularized plant or fungal tissue; obtaining single structural cells and/or groups of structural cells from the decellularized plant or fungal tissue by performing mercerization; mixing or distributing the single structural cells and/or groups of structural cells in a hydrogel, to provide a mixture; and dehydrating, lyophilizing, or freeze-drying the mixture to provide the aerogel or foam. Related methods and uses are also provided.

A modular system for autonomous food assembly includes: a skid operable in a first configuration configured to transiently install on a vehicle and in a second configuration configured to transiently install in a kiosk; a set of food dispensing modules configured to transiently install on the skid and store and dispense food based on food orders; and a fixed infrastructure configured to distribute power from a first power source in the truck to the set of food dispensing modules in the first configuration, from a second power source in the fixed kiosk to the set of food dispensing modules in the second configuration, and to the set of food dispensing modules; a controller installed on the skid and configured to receive food orders and control the set of food dispensing modules to dispense food orders from the truck in the first configuration and from the kiosk in the second configuration.

At this invention I suggest solutions to impotence.

Compositions and methods are presented that substantially increase levels of BDNF in blood, and even more pronouncedly exosomal BDNF levels. Suitable compositions include whole coffee fruit extracts and powders that are orally administered at relatively low dosages.

Suggested is a delivery system for food additives, comprising or consisting of the following components: (a) at least one food additive dissolved in a solvent and (b) at least one emulsifier and/or at least one hydrocolloid dissolved in water,
characterized in that the delivery system is an oil-in-water emulsion.

Provided is a method of making a dehydrated food product. The method includes culling the food product for foreign objects, cleaning the food product, germinating the food product, dehydrating the food product, and cooling the dehydrated food product. Dehydrating the food product can include maintaining the food product in a compartment, heating air in the compartment to a temperature at or between about 115? F. and about 118? F. to remove moisture from the food product, and venting the heated air and moisture from the compartment. The food product can be, as examples, nuts, seeds, and/or beans.
