Abstract: A web of material having a plurality of ink droplets disposed thereon is disclosed. The ink droplets may be configured in a variety of different fashions on the web of material.

Abstract: An edible product and method for making an edible product including a core composition having at least one outer surface and at least one edible, three dimensional object secured to the at least one outer surface, where the object includes a binder material and a deliverable component selected from the group consisting of flavors, colors, sweeteners, actives, sensates, effervescent components, and combinations thereof. Also, a method for delivery of at least one deliverable component including placing such products in the mouth of a user and releasing the deliverable component from the edible, three dimensional object.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a front end region, a rear end region, a central region disposed between the front and rear end regions, a fluids source area, and a transverse axis and a longitudinal axis. The absorbent article includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and a reinforcing structure disposed within the central region. In one aspect of the invention, the reinforcing structure includes a pair of traverse reinforcing elements each of which is formed by two traverse channels. The two traverse channels may be disposed generally parallel to the transverse axis with a reinforcement distance such that the absorbent core has an average density of in the range of about 5% to about 500% higher at the traverse reinforcing element than the fluids source area.

Abstract: A nonwoven web having printed thereon a colorant and/or a composition providing a skin health benefit. The nonwoven web can be a three-dimensional, fluid pervious, polymeric web. The nonwoven web can comprise apertures. The apertures are defined in a first surface of the nonwoven web in a first plane of the nonwoven web, and extend in sidewall portions to a second surface in a second plane of the nonwoven web. A colorant or lotion composition can be deposited on at least a portion of the second surface of the nonwoven web.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are chewing gum snack products having multi-sensorial attributes of flavor, texture, and visual appeal which provides a snack-like quality at the initial stage of chewing that then transitions to chewing gum-like qualities at later stages of chewing.

Abstract: A chewing gum product is formed by a method that includes extruding a chewing gum material to form an extruded body portion with capillaries, adding a fill material to at least one capillary to form a filled extruded body, and separating the filled extruded body to form the chewing gum product. The fill material includes about 20 to about 80 weight percent sorbitol, and about 20 to about 80 weight percent xylitol, wherein the total of sorbitol and xylitol is at least 80 weight percent. On cooling, the fill material crystallizes to form a crunchy filling.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a front end region, a rear end region, a central region disposed between the front and rear end regions, a fluids source area, and a transverse axis and a longitudinal axis. The absorbent article includes a topsheet, a backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, and a reinforcing structure disposed within the central region. In one aspect of the invention, the reinforcing structure includes a pair of traverse reinforcing elements each of which is formed by two traverse channels. The two traverse channels may be disposed generally parallel to the transverse axis with a reinforcement distance such that the absorbent core has an average density of in the range of about 5% to about 500% higher at the traverse reinforcing element than the fluids source area.

Abstract: A web having printed thereon a colorant and/or a composition providing a skin health benefit. The web can be a three-dimensional, fluid pervious, polymeric web. The web can comprise a pattern of interconnecting members, the interconnecting members defining apertures. The apertures are defined in a first surface of the web in a first plane of the web, and extend in sidewall portions to a second surface in a second plane of the web. A colorant or lotion composition can be deposited on at least a portion of the second surface of the web.
