Abstract
Inclusion of 71/2% to 15% of a monosaccharide in a dry animal food prepared by hot extrusion of a mixture comprising at least 50% by weight cereal meal and 15%-35% by weight protein yields a product having a partially elastic, partially deformable, chewy, non-crumbly structure. Unlike soft pet foods of substantially higher water content, the present product requires no polyhydrins either as a texturizer or as a preservative. Under the process described the product, when extruded, has a water content of approximately 20% and is dried to about 15% without loss of its unique texture and with minimal energy costs.
