Abstract
The invention relates to canned pet foods and to a process for preparing them. Meat and gravy pet foods are prepared which are highly palatable due to high meat and significant fat contents. The meaty pieces exhibit high integrity and the gravy component is flowable from the can and coats the meaty pieces to provide a high sheen with no significant visible fat in the gravy.
