Disclosed herein is a shellfish analogue product which simulates the natural texture of real shellfish meat

Described herein is non-grain composition, comprising at least a thermally inhibited or HMT waxy tapioca starch having a post-retort viscosity of less than 1500 centipoise. Such composition can be used for retort food applications; shelf-stable, thermally processed food applications; canned food applications; and/or aseptic packing and ultra-heat treated process food applications.

A material mixing inhibitor composition, a method of minimizing material mixing of a first fluid material and a second fluid material in a material processing system that includes a pipeline, and a cartridge for delivery of a material mixing inhibitor composition to the material processing system are described.

The present invention relates to a non-dairy food composition comprising particles of an emulsion gel dispersed in a crystallized lipid; wherein the emulsion gel comprises a combination of dietary fiber; plant protein, lipid and calcium; and wherein the composition is devoid of additives. The composition of the invention is free of cholesterol, low in saturated fats and methods for making them. In a particular aspect of the present invention, the non-dairy food composition is employed as an animal fat substitute to mimic the appearance and texture of adipose tissue as well as appealing mouthfeel and texture in meat-analogues.

The present invention relates to a fermentation kit for the home preparation of plant juice fermentation products, also called plant-based milks, in particular fermented milks or liquid, stirred or firm yogurts, with ferments and at least one texture agent miscible with water at a temperature of 10° C. to 30° C.

A low cost biodegradable drinking straw comprising structurally non-altered corn starch mixed with one or more than one improver. The improver comprises a biological enzyme preparation and a colloid preparation. The low cost biodegradable drinking straw is made by providing 98% structurally non-altered corn starch mixed with one or more than one improver to make a biodegradable powder. The edible biodegradable powder is formed into a drinking straw shape and extruded to a drinking straw shape. When the extruded drinking straw shapes are cooled, they are cut into an appropriate drinking straw length. The cut drinking straws are then dried and packaged.
