Abstract
An improved solid, edible nutritional food such as a bar or cube for supplementing the diets of both humans and animals is provided. Broadly, the foods comprise bars which include a sugar-based sweetening ingredient, a quantity of fat, and a formulated quantity of various vitamins, minerals, medicaments, and/or other supplemental ingredients. The bars can be formulated to provide 100% of the daily requirements of the supplemental ingredients, or alternately can be formulated to provide extra amounts of a particular component which is lacking in the animal or human's diet. In one embodiment, the bars weigh approximately 1 lb. and are scored into bite-sized pieces for easy consumption, thus providing a method for delivering exact quantities of supplemental ingredients to animals or humans.
