Title:
WET FOOD COMPOSITIONS HAVING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF DRY FOOD COMPOSITIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/014256
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides wet food compositions that have the characteristics of dry food compositions. The compositions contain from about 90 to about 99% of one or more meat emulsion chunks and from about 1 to about 10% of one or more binders. The compositions are made using a method that produces compositions having a moisture content greater than 45% but, surprisingly, have the characteristics of dry food compositions. The compositions have the relatively high palatability advantages of wet food compositions while having the desirable physical characteristics of dry food compositions.
