There is provided a creamer composition, said composition comprising casein or a salt thereof and an oil, wherein the weight ratio of casein or salt thereof to oil is about 0.005:1 to about 0.035:1, preferably about 0.010:1 to about 0.030:1; preferably about 0.012:1 to about 0.028:1, more preferably about 0.015:1 to about 0.025:1. Also provided are uses of said creamer composition together with a process of preparing a creamer composition.

A dairy product, including drinking milk, yogurt, cheese, sour cream, whipping cream, dry milk powder, coffee creamer, ice-cream, kefir, or butter, made from a human mother's milk as its base component. Where the milk has been tested for absence of undesirable chemicals, including prescription medication, illicit drugs, nicotine, and alcohol. With the prescription medication including lithium, chemo therapy agents, Ergotamine, and Bromocriptine, and the illicit drugs including any mind altering substances including marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Where the milk is further exposed to an Ultraviolet (UV) radiation of 260 nm to 270 nm wavelength, disinfecting any undesirable bacteria that was not present in the milk at the time it was expressed. The UV radiation exposure includes placing the milk in a vessel with a mixing mechanism gently agitating the milk, enhancing exposure of a substantial volume of the milk to the UV radiation.

The present invention describes a food product comprising from 0.1 to 2.5 wt % of a starch which is treated with an amylomaltase.

A method for producing a mixture of oil and fluid food product includes placing a funnel into a pressure tank such that a stem of the funnel extends at least halfway down into the pressure tank. The pressure tank is flushed with nitrogen. Oil flows into the pressure tank through the funnel. A flow of nitrogen into the pressure tank is maintained through a side inlet of the pressure tank. Oil is dispensed from a pressure tank into the transfer line flowing a flow of fluid food product from a batch tank. The dispensed oil is dispersed into the flow of fluid food product in a inline shear mixer creating oil-in-fluid food product droplets. The oil-in-fluid food product droplets flow to the batch tank with the flow of fluid food product. The oil-in-fluid food product droplets are distributed in a volume of fluid food product in the batch tank.

An apparatus for distributing oil into fluid food product includes a batch tank, a transfer line, a pressure tank, a funnel, an oil dispenser, an inline shear mixer, and a flow line. The batch tank holds a volume of fluid food product. The transfer line is in fluid connection with the batch tank. The pressure tank holds a volume of oil. The funnel is disposed through a top opening in the pressure tank and dispenses oil into the pressure tank. A stem portion of the funnel extends at least halfway into an interior of the pressure tank. The funnel includes at least one vent. The oil dispenser dispenses oil from the pressure tank into a flow of fluid food product from the batch tank. The inline shear mixer mixes the fluid food product and the oil. The flow line flows the fluid food product-and-oil mixture to the batch tank.

Embodiments herein include opacifying compositions, food products made with the same, and related methods. In an embodiment, a processed food product is included. The processed food product can include a modified food starch with at least 70 wt. % fiber and a milk mineral concentrate with at least 24 wt. % calcium.

Isoflavone-supplemented milk replacers fed to young animals during a pre-weaning provides isoflavones in the milk replacer at a level of about 700 mg per kilogram of the milk replacer, and/or provides about 450 mg of the supplemental isoflavone in at least about 1.5 pounds of the milk replacer by dry weight such that the animal ingests this amount of the isoflavone per day, and/or provides in the milk replacer at least about 50 mg of isoflavone per pound of the animal's birth weight is ingested per day. In response to ingesting the isoflavone-supplemented milk replacer, the young animal experiences improved performance.
