Description
BAGGED SNACKS
The present invention relates to bagged snacks, in particular to an improved form of bagged snackfood product.
There is a current trend in the food industry, especially amongst the manufacturers of "convenience" foods to seek an ever more "natural" food product.
Thus, the industry is seeking all the time to remove additives from "convenience" foods, especially those additives allocated an "E" number, in order to present an image more acceptable to the public and the perception of the public as to what may or may not constitute a "natural" food product which is "good for you The trend, therefore, is towards taking out of snackfood products the additives which for a large number of years the industry has sought to develop and to put into the products, in order now to make the products more consumer acceptable.Furthermore, while nutritionists and those concerned with specialist diets may be all too familiar with what potato crisps contain, for example, they are particularly rich in potassium (7.9 mEq. per 26 g packet), and with added salt their sodium content may be too high for some dietary purposes, what they do not contain is of little or no concern.
On the other hand, snackfood products tend to be consumed by the young. Children, however, are the one group where the nutritional defects of one class of food consumed - say sweets or snackfoods - may not be made up in terms of other food consumed. With an adult the nutritional imbalance caused by consuming say one or two packets of snackfood per day will usually be more than adequately cured by the food consumed at other set meals taken during the day. For children that may be much less likely to be the case and the balance of their diet is likely to include an undue proportion of sweets and the like. Moreover, children are the one 2oup in human society which is most susceptible to the adverse effects of malnutrition.
Although bagged snackfoods have now been popular for more than half a century, during that time the only consistent additive has been common salt, although a variety of flavourings of more and more exotic character have become popular in the past decade or two. To date, however, we believe there has never been any proposal to add nutritious additives to potato crisps or a like snackfood product, although some extruded products have included added protein, at least on an experimental basis.
There is, therefore, a need for a snackfood product which is able to provide at least some basic nutrients in the form of vitamins and at least one mineral other than sodium or potassium significantly to reduce the likelihood of malnutrition resulting from the consumption of the product as a noticeable part of a child's diet.
However, the incorporation of nutrients in the form of vitamins in a cooked product such as a snackfood product poses particular problems arising out of the fact of having to cook the product and thereby destroy or potentially destroy any added vitamins.
Furthermore, even in the case where the vitamins might be thought to be free from potential destruction in being applied after cooking, nevertheless there may be remaining problems due to the temperature of the product and the specialised production environment in which it is finished after cooking.
Nevertheless, we have found surprisingly that by providing vitamins as a coating composition at the flavouring stage in the finishing operation it is possible to produce on an essentially consistent basis a bagged snackfood product including added vitamins set at a predetermined and useful level.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a bagged snack, which snack comprises a multiplicity of individual morsels of a cooked snackfood product, the snackfood including a plurality of added vitamins and at least one added mineral other than sodium e.g as sodium chloride, or potassium, the vitamins and mineral being present at a level which provides at least about a recommended daily dietary allowance (RDA) thereof in 100 grams of product, the vitamins comprising at least thiamin (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and vitamin D, and the snackfood being at least essentially oil- or fat-free and having a "fruity" flavour or is one produced as a "sweet" product.
The bagged snack of the invention may comprise any casually eaten convenience sweet or fruity snackfood product and generally one eaten using the fingers.
Such products are usually but not necessarily sold in bag packs containing snack-sized portions, typically of say about 1 ounce or about 25, about 26 or about 28 grams. In addition, larger family sized packs may be used if desired, but whatever the pack size the packs will contain a multiplicity of generally bite-sized morsels of snackfood such as in the case of individual crisps or chips, generally to be eaten using the fingers.
Apart from the requirement to be of the kind which is sold as a bagged snack, by which we mean a snack product sold in relatively small portions as a multiplicity of bite-sized morsels, the bagged snack of the invention may take a variety of forms. Thus, it may be an expanded or non-expanded snackfood and it may be a natural or a synthetic product or a combination thereof. Where the product is expanded that may be achieved by extrusion, by frying or by any other technique such as warm air or microwave expansion.
The bagged snack is either at least essentially oil- or fat- free, and has a "fruity" flavour, or it may be produced as a "sweet" product, for example, with a chocolate or carob flavour or coating.
Whatever the form of presentation of the bagged snack of the invention it will generally be produced by one of two alternative processes. In a first process the processing may include the steps of: 1. Frying morsels of product in fat or oil to cook them, typically in a bath at from about 1750C to about 1850C for a relatively short period of time such as 3 to 4 minutes.
2. Removing excess oil or fat, and (preferably), 3. Coating with a flavouring composition, typically as a powder, for example, in a drum.
In a second process the processing may include the steps of: 1. Cooking, for example, by extrusion, using warm air or in a microwave apparatus, and 2. Applying a flavouring composition.
Irrespective of the kind of process technique employed to produce the bagged snack of the invention, any additives used to impart flavour and the necessary or desired vitamins and at least one mineral should be added after any process step which would destroy them.
Thus, the said vitamins and preferably the at least one mineral are added after each of steps 1 of the processes described above, preferably in or after step 3 of the first process above or in or after step 2 of the second process above, either as part of the flavouring composition or as a separate composition.
More preferably, the flavouring composition includes the said vitamins and at least one mineral.
A process for producing a bagged snack, which process includes a step prior to bagging and after cooking of applying to morsels of a snackfood product an additive composition comprising at least one flavouring agent and/or an organolepticallyacceptable, non-toxic diluent or carrier, together with a plurality of vitamins, preferably thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, ascorbic acid and vitamin D, and at least one mineral other than sodium or potassium, in an amount to provide at least about a recommended daily dietary allowance (RDA) of the vitamins and at least one mineral in 100 grams of bagged snack, is the subject of another Application divided, like the present one, out of our copending Application
No. 88/25,531.4 (Pat 8316), as is both the additive composition itself and a method for preparing the additive composition.
As will be evident from any review of the literature on the subject of nutrition there are a variety of different opinions as to what constitutes a recommended daily allowance (RDA) of any one vitamin or mineral. Nevertheless, and generally speaking, what the present invention seeks to provide is a sweet/fruity bagged snack which will supplement the diet of the young to a useful degree with the very minimum of potential to cause harm.To that end we seek preferably to provide in a bagged snack and in relation to a datum level of 100 g (approximately equal to 4 snack-sized bag portions) the following vitamins at least at about the stated RDA levels in the UK for a 6 to 8 year old child, namely:
Thiamin B1 - at least at about 1.2 mg
Riboflavin B2 - at least at about 1.6 mg
Niacin B3 - at least at about 16 mg
Vitamin C - at least at about 36 mg
Vitamin D - at least at about 2.8 ug
Mineral - at least at about the RDA for a child
In addition, the mineral is preferably iron at a level of at least about 8.8 mg. Also, where oil is present and the oil is the preferred sunflower oil, a vitamin E level (based on an oil content of about 35% by weight) of about 6.2 mg may be provided.
The above figures, of course, are related to the levels provided in the finished product and are not necessarily the levels provided by adding ingredients.
Thus, in any particular case certain ingredients when added may be added at a level lower than that apparently necessary because there are inherent levels of certain ingredients already present in the "raw material".
Preferably in the bagged snack of the invention the mineral added to the snack morsels is iron. Thus, preferably, in a composition in accordance with the invention the added mineral is iron which typically may be present as ferrous sulphate. Accordingly, a preferred bagged snack will provide:
Niacin B3 for converting food to energy and for healthy skin, and which also aids the nervous system.
Riboflavin B2 essential for building body tissues and increases the sensitivity of eyes to light.
Thiamin B1 for proper functioning of the heart, nervous system and muscles. Essential for growth.
Vitamin C for healthy teeth, gums and bones - builds strong body cells and blood.
Vitamin D for strong teeth and bones.
Iron for keeping blood healthy. It forms part of the red pigment of blood which carries oxygen to every part of the body.
