Abstract
A process for selectively grinding dual-density processed food in a single unit operation in a short-duration manner. Selective grinding as between lower-density and higher-density portions of the dual-density processed food may be effected without the need for moving mechanical parts. A granulated lower-density portion and liberated nonground higher-density portion obtained from the selective grinding treatment performed on dual-density processed food are independently useful for re-use in food production lines.
