An object of the present invention is to provide an unfermented beer-taste beverage which has an appearance with foam like beer, but does not have the characteristic odor common to beers and non-alcohol beer-taste beverages associated with fermentation; an unfermented beer-taste beverage containing a soybean dietary fiber does not have the characteristic odor common to general beers and non-alcohol beer-taste beverages associated with fermentation; when the beer-taste beverage is poured into a glass or the like, a beer-like foam with a good appearance can be formed; the foam arising from the glass is a fine and minute foam like champagne, and the foam arises linearly; in addition, the beer-like foam makes the mouthfeel smooth, and further provides a texture.

This disclosure provides novel compositions comprising a pectin, a first xanthan gum, and optionally a second xanthan gum. These compositions are useful for improving mouthfeel properties of non-nutritive sweeteners, such as steviol glycosides and blends thereof, in food and beverages containing the same.

Variants of mannanase, compositions including the variants, to methods for their production and to methods of using the variants to degrade and modify mannan containing material.

The present invention discloses compositions and edible orally delivered products, such as candies, beverages, nutritional bars and dietary supplements that increase bone growth and treat age-related bone loss in humans. The major component of the invention is biological calcium which is derived from natural eggshell powder. The compositions also include organic honey and lemon.

Disclosed are sweetened consumables and methods of forming said sweetened consumables that comprise certain sweeteners and a compound of formula (1), ##STR00001##
wherein R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of OH and OCH.sub.3, and R.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of H and OH, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 comprise at least one OH group, and when R.sup.1 is OH then R.sup.2 is H (trilobatin), and when R.sup.1 is OCH.sub.3 then R.sup.2 is OH (HDG), in a concentration near its sweetness detection threshold. The sweeteners include sucrose, fructose, glucose, high fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, xylose, arabinose, rhamnose, erythritol, xylitol, mannitol, sorbitol, inositol, acesulfame potassium, aspartame, neotame, sucralose, saccharine, or combinations thereof.

The present invention provides a method and system apparatus for mass production of vegetable substitute milk by combining nutritional components and health functional components of cereals including quinoa, amaranth, or soybean in order to solve side effects occurring since a human beings consumes cow's milk used for the rapid growth of calves.

More specially, the present invention provides a method and system apparatus wherein, in order to solve the problem in which a chemical emulsifying agent has to be added for the emulsification between purified water and an oil component of a material, including quinoa, amaranth, or soybean when the material is prepared into a milk form of liquid, the material is diffused and then finely pulverized by a nano-pulverizing unit, thereby mass-producing pure vegetable milk substitute, which is as soft as milk, through the molecular binding between nanoparticles of the material and water molecules of the purified water without adding any chemical agent.

In addition, the present invention provides a technology of manufacturing a pure vegetable substitute milk, in which nutritional components and functional components of cereals including quinoa, amaranth, or soybeans, are combined to design and mass-produce pure vegetable substitute milk, which contains nutritional components and functional components and is most ideal for human health through molecular binding between nanoparticles of each material and water molecules of purified water, thereby solving the side effects due to existing cow's milk and contributing to the promotion of human health.

The present disclosure disclosed is a method for reducing the purine content of soybean milk, which belongs to the technical field of food depurination. According to the method, purine-reducing soybeans are taken as raw materials, and macromolecular purine in a bound state is selected to be hydrolyzed into small molecules according to different existence forms of purine in soybeans, and then micromolecular purine is adsorbed and removed by an adsorbent. The method is high in feasibility and good in removal effect. The soybean milk of the present disclosure is safe and non-toxic, high in purine removal rate, and low in nutrient loss, has no obvious change in mouth feel compared with common soybean milk, and can be used as a safe food for gout patients.

A dairy analogue composition comprises up to 90% by weight of water; and from 1% by weight to 80% by weight of a fat composition; wherein the fat composition comprises an interesterified blend of non-tropical vegetable oil and fully hydrogenated non-tropical vegetable oil.

A vegetable-protein-containing liquid food product is provided. The vegetable-protein-containing liquid food product excellent in salt resistance can be produced by mixing raw materials containing a vegetable protein, a salt-containing seasoning, and one or more emulsifiers selected from the group consisting of a polyglycerin fatty acid ester having an HLB of 7 or greater, a constituent fatty acid having 14 to 18 carbons, and a polymerization degree of 5 or greater, a polyglycerin fatty acid ester having an HLB of 12 or greater, a constituent fatty acid having 10 to 12 carbons, and a polymerization degree of 10 or greater, a sucrose fatty acid ester having an HLB of 5 or greater and a constituent fatty acid having 14 to 18 carbons, and a sorbitan fatty acid ester having an HLB of 15 or greater and a constituent fatty acid having 12 to 18 carbons, followed by heat sterilization.
