Vegetable meal compositions having high-rumen bypass potentials for use in the feeding of ruminant animals, and a method for producing the compositions are claimed. The claimed compositions comprise a protein meal and low levels of zinc ions, with the zinc ions being present in an amount sufficient to provide about 0.003-0.008 parts zinc ions per part of protein in the meal. The composition has a rumen bypass potential, as measured by the 'Percent of Total Protein that is Available and Undegraded', or '% AUN', of not less than about 30. The method for producing the composition comprises treating the meals with low levels of zinc ions and heating the mixture under moist heat conditions.

This invention is concerned with a novel process for preparing breaded foods which, when baked, have the desirable characteristics of the deep-fat fried counterpart which is made possible by coating with a fat-emulsion, breading and thereafter overcoating with an egg white solution.
