PET FOOD PRODUCT AND METHOD FOR MAKING
A pet food product including a storage container and a first pet food product in the form of solid components having a first average particle size, wherein the first pet food product is positioned in the storage container. The pet food product further includes a second pet food product in the form of at least one of a liquid, a gel, a paste, a powder, or solid components having a second average particle size that is smaller than the first average particle size. The second pet food product is positioned in the storage container and generally separated from the first pet food product. The first pet food product alone does not provide a fully compliant pet food product, the second pet food product does not alone provide a fully compliant pet food product, and the first and second pet food products have a composition such that when a sufficient amount of the first pet food product and a sufficient amount of the second pet food product are combined, a compliant pet food product results.

Pseudo-loaf food compositions
The invention provides pseudo-loaf food compositions comprising meat analog chunks and gravy, the gravy comprising a thickener selected from the group consisting of a gum present in the gravy in an amount from about 0.5 to about 3.0% of the gravy by weight, a starch present in the gravy in an amount from about 2.0 to about 9.0% of the gravy by weight, and combinations thereof. The food composition has a moisture content from about 60% to about 74% of the composition by weight and has a loaf-type structure. In an embodiment, the moisture content of the pseudo-loaf food composition is from about 67% to about 74% of the composition by weight. In addition, the invention provides methods of making pseudo-loaf food compositions and also provides blended food compositions comprising one or more pseudo-loaf compositions and one or more comestible ingredients compatible with the pseudo-loaf food compositions.
