A process of forming a treated clay composition, a process of decaffeination, and a treated clay composition are shown. The process of forming the treated clay composition includes providing a first solution of caffeine molecules and non-caffeine molecules, extracting the caffeine molecules to form a pretreatment solution, and bringing a clay composition into contact with the pretreatment solution to form the treated clay composition, on which at least one of the non-caffeine molecules is adsorbed. The process of decaffeination includes providing a solution of caffeine and non-caffeine molecules, and bringing the solution into contact with a treated clay composition. The treated clay composition includes organic molecules adsorbed on mineral layers of a clay. The organic molecules are non-caffeine molecules from a pretreatment solution.

A raw material mixture is supplied to an extrusion machine by a moved supply unit in a particularly uniform manner. The raw material mixture has a fiber raw material and a carrier raw material. The fiber raw material has a process by-product of a food manufacturing process and the carrier raw material has whole-grain components. A raw material quantity is supplied by the supply unit along a trajectory through the supply opening into the production machine. The trajectory of the raw material quantity is changeable. The supply unit has at least one actuating unit, by which an actuating movement of the supply channel portion and/or of the feed hopper can be generated, so that the supply channel portion can be caused to displace relative to the feed hopper.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a dried food from a fruit or vegetable, more particularly for producing potato flakes. The invention proposes the following method steps for providing a dried food pulp from a fruit or vegetable, more particularly potato flakes, having a low free starch content without the addition of emulsifiers or other additives: Treating the fruit by applying an electrical field; comminuting the treated fruit or vegetable to form a food pulp; and drying the food pulp. The present invention also relates to a dried food pulp, more particularly potato flakes, produced according to the method of the invention, and the use of such a dried food pulp.

A composition and method for supplementing food, nutrition, and diet systems with omega-6 to omega-3 balanced oils comprising a synergistic blend of at least two oils. The composition further comprises a synergistic blend of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids as a means to further increase the nutritional value. The composition provides an effective increase in therapeutic and pharmacological properties in nutrition, and retards the rate of oxidation thereof.

A method of preparing a whole grain rice shredded product is provided. The method includes the steps of combining water and a whole grain rice component, the whole grain rice component comprising at least about 75% by weight rice, or up to about 100% by weight rice, cooking the whole grain rice component and water to form a cooked whole grain rice material, cooling the cooked whole grain rice material, tempering the cooked whole grain rice material for less than about 90 minutes to form a tempered whole grain rice material, and shredding the tempered whole grain rice material to form continuous net-like sheets of the whole grain rice shredded product.
