FAT LUMP COMPOSITION AND MEAT SUBSTITUTE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18531692 titled 'FAT LUMP COMPOSITION AND MEAT SUBSTITUTE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a fat lump composition containing granular bodies with oil and/or fat, an edible and ionically crosslinkable polymer crosslinked with a cation, and an average particle diameter of 50 μm to 500 μm, as well as a meat substitute.

  • The composition contains granular bodies with oil and/or fat and an edible and ionically crosslinkable polymer crosslinked with a cation.
  • The granular bodies have an average particle diameter of 50 μm to 500 μm.
  • The composition can be used as a meat substitute.

Potential Applications

The technology can be used in food products as a meat substitute, providing a plant-based alternative for consumers looking to reduce their meat consumption.

Problems Solved
