Definitions

  • the present invention is directed towards a snack bar containing psyllium, particularly a snack bar that is organoleptically acceptable.
  • Consuming fiber has many health benefits.
  • the overall health benefits of fiber can be determined, in part, by its physical attributes, particularly solubility and viscosity.
  • Soluble viscous fiber such as psyllium, can promote digestive health by relieving constipation and normalizing bowel movements and can help to lower cholesterol, curb hunger, and maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
  • psyllium is a known mucilaginous material, which acquires a slimy or adhesive texture and mouthfeel upon hydration, often resulting in a product that is not highly palatable. Furthermore, psyllium can develop a distinctive, undesirable flavor in the presence of heat and moisture, which further limits its use in food products. Consequently, snack bars that contain psyllium can often have an unsatisfactory taste, texture, and mouthfeel.
  • a reference amount commonly consumed (RACC) of an organoleptically acceptable psyllium snack bar comprising: (a) from about 3 g to about 6 g fiber wherein the fiber comprises from about 1 g to about 3 g soluble fiber; (b) from about 2 g to about 4 g psyllium; (c) a whole grain product; wherein the snack bar comprises less than about 3 g fat and wherein the snack bar comprises from about 135 to about 180 calories per RACC and wherein the snack bar is not baked.
  • An RACC of an organoleptic ally acceptable psyllium snack bar comprising: (a) from about 0.5 g to about 4 g of soluble fiber from psyllium; (b) a whole grain; (c) a dried fruit; wherein the snack bar is low in fat, low in saturated fat, and does not comprise cholesterol and wherein the snack bar is from about 100 to about 280 calories per RACC and wherein the snack bar comprises a weight ratio of protein to fiber of from about 0.25 to about 1.5.
  • An organoleptic ally acceptable psyllium snack bar comprising: (a) at least about 50 mg/g fiber wherein the fiber comprises at least about 25 mg/g soluble fiber; (b) at least about 10 mg/g psyllium; (c) a whole grain; wherein the snack bar comprises a weight ratio of protein to fiber of from about 0.25 to about 1.5 and wherein a consumer prefers the psyllium snack bar to a psyllium snack bar that does not have a weight ratio of protein to fiber of from about 0.25 to about 1.5 in a taste test.
  • FIG. 1 shows taste testing data comparing the overall taste of commercially available snack bar products that contain psyllium
  • FIG. 2 shows taste testing data comparing the overall taste of the snack bars of the present invention with the overall taste of commercially available snack bar products.
  • Snack bars including but not limited to granola bars and cereal bars, are a fast and convenient snack that can include fiber.
  • the snack bar of the present invention can be organoleptically acceptable while comprising at least about 2.5 grams of fiber. Which includes at least about 1.5 grams of soluble fiber from psyllium per reference amount commonly consumed (RACC).
  • the snack bars can also be low in fat, low in saturated fat, and have no cholesterol.
  • the snack bar can have about 150 calories per RACC.
  • the snack bars can provide a healthy choice help satisfy hunger and/or reduce hunger. In one example, the snack bars are not intended as a meal replacement. Additionally, the snack bars can help lower cholesterol and promote heart health.
  • the snack bar also can contain grains such as rolled oats and crisp rice, which is made out of rice flour, malt extract, and salt.
  • the snack bar can also contain nuggets made from air popped cereals or extruded products. Some of the grains can be relatively large pieces. For example, many of the crisp rice and rolled oats pieces can be greater than about 5 mm long and greater than about 3 mm wide. The grain pieces can add some crunchiness and texture to the snack bar. In one example, the snack bars can have a chewy texture.
  • the snack bar can also contain dried fruit pieces, such as raisins and/or cranberries.
  • the dried fruit pieces can add sweetness as well as a chewy texture. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the texture and crunchiness from the grain pieces and/or the chewiness from the fruit can help distract the consumer' s palette from the texture of the psyllium. Furthermore, the chewiness from the dried fruit can help disguise the gumminess of the psyllium.
  • the snack bar can contain syrups and liquid ingredients such as plasticizers.
  • the plasticizer can be glycerin.
  • the viscosity of the syrups can be controlled to slow the absorption into the grains, crisp rice and/or nuggets, which results in a crispy texture instead of a texture that is too hard.
  • the high viscosity syrups can further help disguise the gumminess of the psyllium.
  • the snack bar can also have a coating.
  • the coating can be on one or more sides. In one example the coating can be drizzled across the top side. In another example, the coating can substantially cover one side.
  • the coating can be made of a sweetener and can have a crunchy texture. It is believed that the coating can further distract the consumer' s pallet from the texture of the psyllium, as well as provide additional sweetness.
  • the psyllium is approximately evenly dispersed throughout the snack bar, which can also help improve the taste of the snack bar.
  • the psyllium can be steam sanitized. Steam sanitization can destroy microbes without significantly changing the flavor of the psyllium or adding additional chemicals. In another example, the psyllium is not sanitized with chemicals. Additional information on steam sanitization can be found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,911,889 and 5,229,117. The particle size of the psyllium can influence the overall mouth feel of the snack bar. If the particle size is too large, the snack bar can taste grainy.
  • the mean particle size is from about 25 ⁇ to about 250 ⁇ , in another example from about 50 ⁇ to about 200 ⁇ , and in another example from about 75 ⁇ to about 125 ⁇ .
  • the snack bar is not baked. Baking can cause physical and chemical reactions that can change the physical and chemical properties of the ingredients. For instance, baking can change the taste of some ingredients.
  • the snack bar can have a shelf life of at least about 12 months, in another example at least about 18 months, and in another example at least about 24 months.
  • the water activity (Aw) can be from about 0.05 to about 0.35.
  • the snack bar can have a water activity in this range for the entire shelf life.
  • the snack bar can have an Aw of less than about 0.6 after 12 months, in another example less than about 0.5 after 12 months, and in another example less than about 0.4 after 12 months.
  • Water activity can be determined as described hereafter in the Water Activity Test Method.
  • calorie refers to a unit of food energy and is equivalent to the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
  • dietary fiber or “fiber” refers to the fibrous or gummy component of food that is indigestible and non-metabolizable by humans. Fiber can include soluble fiber and insoluble fiber.
  • insoluble fiber refers to fiber that does not dissolve in water. Insoluble fiber can be metabolically inert and can provide bulking and/or prebiotic benefits.
  • psyllium refers to ground psyllium or ispaghula husk. Psyllium is from the seeds of Plantago ovata or Plantago psyllium. In one example, the psyllium husk is from Plantago ovata. It is believed that the husk contains the highest concentration of the fiber and the ground husk is used for a source of psyllium fiber.
  • the RACC refers to the reference amounts customarily consumed per eating occasion.
  • the RACC is commonly referred to as the "serving" or the “suggested serving".
  • the RACC can be any suitable size.
  • the RACC can be from about 20 g to about 100 g, in another example from about 25 g to about 80 g, in another example from about 30 g to about 70 g, in another example from about 33 g to about 60 g, in another example from about 35 g to about 50 g, in another example from about 37 g to about 45 g, and in another example from about 38 g to about 43 g.
  • the RACC is about 40 g.
  • soluble fiber refers to dietary fiber that is water soluble or water swellable.
  • sources of soluble fiber can include psyllium, beta glucan, oat bran, oat groat, pectin, carrageenan, guar gum, locust bean gum, gum acacia, xanthan gum, and combinations thereof.
  • water activity is the ratio from the vapor pressure of the material divided by the vapor pressure of the air at the same temperature.
  • the first taste test had about 100 consumers and the psyllium bar they sampled was Gnu® Foods Fiber LoveTM Bars in a chocolate brownie flavor.
  • the nutritional information and ingredients for the Gnu® Foods Fiber LoveTM Bars as well as the commercial products can be found in Table 4 and accompanying text, hereafter.
  • the second taste test had about 75 consumers, all of whom participated in the first taste test, and they tested the three FiberWise® bars.
  • the taste test was performed as a blind sequential monadic test. Each consumer received a whole unwrapped bar on a plate and were instructed to consume at least half of the bar. The consumers gave each bar an overall qualitative rating of excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor based on his or her overall rating based on perception and taste of the snack bar. Then, the ratings were converted to a numerical value and the mean was calculated. An excellent rating scored 100, very good scored 75, good scored 50, fair scored 25, and poor scored 0.
  • FIG. 1 shows the mean overall rating from the taste test with the commercial snack bars that contained psyllium.
  • the FiberWise® Oatmeal Raisin had a mean score of 57, corresponding to slightly above good, while the other bars were rated less favorably.
  • the other FiberWise® bars had a mean score of less than 50 and the Gnu® snack bar had a mean score of 32.
  • the panelists were also asked to rate various product attributes, such as stickiness in teeth, residual particles in mouth, and aftertaste.
  • the panelists were given nine qualitative ratings, as shown in Table 1 below. The qualitative rating was then converted to a numerical value, as shown in Table 1 and the mean was calculated for each product attribute.
  • Table 2 shows that for overall liking and taste, the panelists are approximately neutral for all three FiberWise® bars. The panelists also disliked many of the attributes of the Gnu® Foods Fiber LoveTM bars.
  • Example 1 (Cinnamon Raisin), Example 2 (Cranberry Lemon), and Example 3 (Berry) were each flavor matched with two commercially available snack bar products, one that is generally found in the nutrition aisle of the grocery store and another that is generally found in the cereal aisle.
  • Each sample was placed in a blind sequential monadic taste test, where each consumer tasted all nine products but did not know what they tasted.
  • Each consumer received an uncut bar that weighed between 20-25 grams and evaluated the bars to give an overall rating and rated various attributes.
  • the consumers gave a qualitative rating of excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor for the overall rating and each attribute. These qualitative ratings were then converted to numerical scores as described above and the mean was calculated.
  • the nutritional information and ingredients for Examples 1, 2, and 3, as well as the commercial products can be found in Tables 5, 6, and 7 and accompanying text, hereafter.
  • FIG. 2 shows the results from the taste test for the mean overall rating.
  • Example 1 Cinnamon Raisin
  • Example 2 Cranberry Lemon
  • Example 3 is rated significantly higher (p ⁇ 0.05) than the nutrition aisle product, a cranberry oatmeal cookie PowerBar® Harvest EnergyTM, which contains psyllium, and parity to the cereal aisle product, Kellogg' s® Special K® Red Berries cereal bar. It is important to note, that only one of the commercially available snack bar products contained psyllium and the exemplary snack bars of the present invention were rated higher or at parity with the other bars that were tested. Thus, the high ratings are even more surprising, since making psyllium snack bars that are organoleptically acceptable can be difficult.
  • Table 3 shows the mean overall rating and mean rating for each product attribute for the three examples and six commercially available bars. Surprisingly, Examples 1, 2, and 3 had a mean score that was higher or about the same as the commercially available products. It is especially surprising that the consumers preferred the graininess and chewiness of Examples 1, 2, and 3 over all of the commercially available bars, as these qualities are difficult to achieve when formulating snack bars, especially those containing psyllium. Consumers also liked the flavor of Examples 1 and 2 better than any other snack bar. Again, this is surprising because sometimes psyllium has an off flavor. Table 3
