Patent number: 8702413Abstract: An extrusion process incorporates a forming manifold where a tubular flow of a second material is intermittently interrupted while a core flow of a first material is discharged substantially continuously. Subsequently, the core flow is severed to form individual food items or treats for humans, animals, and the like, where the tubular flow results in an outer component surrounding an inner component which protrudes from one or both ends of the outer component. Material of the core flow is bone-like, while material of the tubular flow is meat like. Material of the tubular flow may include material from the core flow subjected to mixing in a static mixer to achieve a marbled texture of the outer material.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2010Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Big Heart Pet BrandsInventors: Donald Barnvos, Hilda Fleischman, Davor Juravic, William Keehn, Steven Bautista, Eric J.

Publication number: 20120058227Abstract: A dog chew treat is fashioned from a composition comprising sugar, fiber, and flour. Preferably, the sugar is dextrose, and the flour is pre-gelatinized wheat flour. The composition may be molded into the shape of a bone, or other treat. A palatant coating may be applied to the molded product. Colors may be added for different aesthetics such as a marbling pattern. Functional ingredients may be used to provide health benefits.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2011Publication date: March 8, 2012Applicant: Del Monte CorporationInventors: William Keehn, Richard Rothamel, Aretha Ashby, Davor Juravic, Franjo Baltorinic, Yomayra Diaz, Steven Bautista, Donald Barnvos, Tracy Wojnarowski, Eric Lew
