Abstract: Process for making crunchy flavorful nut products comprising contacting raw nuts with a water source effective to moisten the nuts without immersing the nuts in the water source, and roasting the moistened nuts. The nut products are crunchy and retain nut flavor when processed in this manner.

Abstract: Roasted infused seeds and a process for preparing roasted infused seeds are described. In one aspect, the roasted infused seeds may have salt, flavors, nutrients, colors, and/or functional ingredients as well as mixtures of these components infused internally into the seed. By infusing such components into the seeds, the methods described herein provide roasted seeds with unique flavors, nutrients, colors, textures, densities, and/or other functionalities.

Abstract: Shelf-stable whole grain-containing composite food products, such as savory and sweet snacks and cereals, are continuously produced by preparing a dough comprising cooking whole grain cereal grain particles in the presence of water effective to gelatinize starch content of the whole grain cereal particles to provide gelatinized whole grain cereal grain particles, and mixing the gelatinized whole grain cereal grain particles with starch, whole grain flour, optional minor dough ingredients such as leavening agent, and a food component selected from the group consisting of vegetables and fruits, effective to prepare dough. The dough is formed into discrete dough units, which are baked or fried to provide a whole-grain containing composite food product that is nutritious, low fat, multi-flavored, and a good source of dietary fiber.

Abstract: A laser fuse signature circuit for testing whether a fuse link in an IC has been disconnected includes a first series circuit connecting the power and ground pins and a second series circuit, including the fuse and a plurality of diode devices, connecting an input pin to a first node in the first series circuit. Transistors included in the first series circuit are connected so that the laser fuse signature circuit does not conduct current during normal operation or leakage current testing of the IC.

Abstract: The present invention uses two pairs of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors attached between two electrically balanced halves of a bit line. Disposed between each pair of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors is only one pair of p-channel restore transistors attached between the bit line and complement bit line. Furthermore, on the bit line and complement bit line, between one pair of cross coupled n-channel sense amplifier transistors and the pair of p-channel restore transistors, are depletion type isolating transistors that further isolate halves of the bit line and complement bit line.
