A ready-to-eat breakfast cereal product contains coarse particulate vegetable components, sugar components, and shortening, with or without other ingredients, and is substantially free of flour. The ingredients are mixed into a heterogeneous moldable mass, and the mass is die molded to form a plurality of bite sized pieces which are dried to form a crisp structure characterized by a matrix of particulate components coated and adhered together by the sugar and shortening components.

Method of making a ready-to-eat breakfast cereal

Food products are supplemented with food supplements comprising finely divided particles of edible, metabolizable fat carrier having mixed therein a nutrient selected from the group consisting of assimilable iron compound, vitamins, minerals and mixtures thereof. Preferably the food supplement is affixed to the food product by applying the supplement to the surface of the food product while said surface is at a temperature above the melting point of the fat carrier.
