Abstract

An edible spread composition comprises a homogenous mixture of plant fiber-containing material, edible oil, water, and an effective amount of an emulsifier that prevents separation of oil from the plant fiber and other mixture solids that otherwise occurs in its absence when the edible spread composition is discharged while held under pressure. The edible spread composition may be, for instance, a peanut butter spread composition or a chocolate spread composition. There also is a packaged spread product comprising the edible spread composition that is held inside a pressurized container and dispensed without experiencing oil separation.
