Abstract: A modified peanut butter composition is provided that includes natural peanut butter, hard butter, and silica gel or fumed silica. The modified peanut butter can also include maltodextrin and canola oil. A method of producing a modified peanut butter composition is also provided. The method includes heating a natural peanut butter to a temperature of at least 140° F., adding a hard butter to the natural peanut butter, mixing a silica gel or a fumed silica with the hard butter and natural peanut butter until a homogeneous mixture is obtained, and mixing the homogeneous mixture until the temperature is in the range of 115° F. to 130° F.

Abstract: A release lotion for delivering Cannabaceae derivatives, including THC made by combining an aqueous phase at least one humectant; wherein the humectant is present in the aqueous phase in the range of from about 1 to 99 wt. %; and an oil phase comprising Cannabaceae derivatives and at least one surfactant, wherein the surfactant is present in the oil phase in the range of from about 1 to 99 wt. %, and wherein the aqueous phase is added to the oil phase in a weight ratio of about 3:1 to 49:1 using low to medium shear mixing, and wherein the lotion is hydrophobic and has release properties.

Abstract: A method of preparing an edible thermoplastic nutritious pet chew having an edible film coating comprising applying an aqueous solution or suspension of a cellulose ester and at least one hydrolysable nutrient or at least one heat labile nutrient to the uncoated pet chew; drying the pet chew at a low temperature to form an edible film coating containing the nutrient, wherein the coating adheres to the pet chew, and wherein the nutrient is not degraded by heat and hydrolysis.

Abstract: A sustained release lotion for deterring animals from licking made by combining an aqueous phase having at least one bittering agent and at least one humectant, herein the at least one bittering agent is present in the aqueous phase in the range of about 0.001 to 25.0 wt. %; wherein the humectant is present in the aqueous phase in the range of from about 1 to 99 wt. %; and an oil phase comprising at least one oil and at least one surfactant, wherein the surfactant is present in the oil phase in the range of from about 1 to 100 wt. %, and wherein the aqueous phase is added to the oil phase in a weight ratio of about 3:1 to 49:1 using low to medium shear mixing and wherein the lotion is hydrophobic and has sustained release properties.
