| 20120003365 | Molded Expanded Pellet Product and Method of Making - A method for making a snack product having a target shape from expandable pellets is disclosed. The snack product is formed into a target shape by expanding the pellets inside a mold. As the pellets expand inside the mold, the mold walls restrain the pellets expansion in the direction normal to the mold wall surface. The pellets also adhere to one another as they expand. An edible binder material can be included to facilitate such adherence. | 01-05-2012 |
| 20110240667 | MODULAR DISPLAY RACK - A modular display rack and, more specifically, a display rack having a plurality of cylindrical bins oriented horizontally and stacked vertically. The cylindrical bins consist of a transparent half-pipe bottom with vertical dividers attached to two circular end caps. The circular end caps provide a hinge for a rotatable door and snap-to-fit features that allow the stacking of the bins vertically. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20100136153 | PREPARATION OF INDIVIDUALLY COATED COMPOSITE FRUIT PRODUCTS - A method and apparatus for producing individually coated, baked, composite fruit core snack products is disclosed. Wet and dry ingredients are mixed and extruded to make a fruit paste rope. The fruit paste rope is divided into individual sections and formed into cores, each of which is substantially shaped into a sphere. The cores are then coated and baked to produce the coated composite fruit snack product. | 06-03-2010 |

The circular end caps provide a hinge for a rotatable door and snap-to-fit features that allow the stacking of the bins vertically. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20090302070 | Method and Apparatus for Dispensing Paste-Like Substances - The present invention discloses a container having a cavity for dispensing a paste and a cavity for another material. In one aspect, a first cavity for a comestible paste resides in an area between a hollow piston and a top section having a dispenser. The top section and piston optionally have corresponding male and female threads in their respective cylindrical sections. The paste can be dispensed by slidably advancing the piston towards the dispenser. In an optional embodiment, the threads can then be engaged to rotatably advance the piston towards the dispenser to dispense additional paste. A comestible seasoning or other material can be disposed in the hollow piston. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20090291186 | Quick Corn Nixtamalization Process - A process for the production of fresh masa, nixtamalized flour and derived products. The invention is a new process for production of corn masa (dough) to be used in the production of tortillas, fried or baked tortilla chips, tostadas, or corn chips. The new process produces masa directly from raw materials without the traditional cooking and steeping steps. It utilizes a series of processing steps including dry blending, hydrating, and working dough in an extruder having a unique screw configuration. The new process uses very little water and emits no waste water. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20090169710 | Reduced Fat Potato Chip - A method for making potato chips involving a marination step in a brine and acacia gum solution prior to frying. Potato pieces or slices are immersed for a short period of time in a brine solution that comprises soluble acacia gum. This immersion marinates the potato pieces prior to a frying step. The resultant potato chips, after frying, have a reduced fat content but exhibit otherwise very similar characteristics to a potato chip made by prior art frying methods. | 07-02-2009 |
