Abstract
Novel fat mimetic compositions are disclosed as reduced calorie food components. These compositions comprise complex polyol esters elaborated with fatty acid residues, and/or residues of esters or ethers having an acid function. The complex esters are partially broken down in the body to yield at least two types of aliphatic digestion residues which are more hydrophilic than the original complex polyol ester substrate. The majority by weight of the digestion residues will be non-hydrolyzable by the normal digestive processes, while a minor amount by weight may be suspectible to facile cleavage by the action of digestive lipase. The fat mimetic compounds are useful as replacements for fats and oils for most food applications.
